IT Fuel Cell Requirements?

[dickita15]

I think this may be a good case for letting a sleeping dog lie...

well we agree on that Greg.

[Andy Bettencourt]

Good idea!

Several years ago, a friend wanted to install a fuel cell in his IT car. He and I both agreed that the "wording" in the GCR and IT rules was "fuzzy" and not totally clear about the installation of a fuel cell in an IT car.

I believe he called SCCA tech and was told that fuel cells were optional in IT cars, but if a fuel cell is installed in an IT car, then the fuel cell must meet the FIA specification as quoted in the GCR.

Perhaps the wording in the IT rules should be more specific about the requirements of a fuel cell in an IT car??

As I do not race anymore in IT, maybe an IT racer should submit or request a revision for clarification.

Agreed on what Ryan said above, and I beleive the same applies for a fire system.

If the original poster (or anyone else) still plans on using the fuel tank mentioned,my brother has one for sale in prcactically new condition.
