    Where does it say it's allowed to mount it to the floor?? Actually, it's prohibited in 9.1.3.9.l.3 Holes may be drillled in the (sic) floorpan for the purposes of mounting ballast (only).....

    The (only) prevents drilling holes and mounting anything to the floor pan, even things we're allowed like radio's, cool suits, data acquisition, and fire systems. So every car with anything mounted to the floor other than weight isn't legal.

    I'd propose we get rid of the only, and allow authorized accessory be allowed to be bolted to the floor

    James: so far I've managed to bolt everything to stock mounting holes such as the seat mounts for passenger seat and center console mounts. I wouldn't be opposed to such a rule change and see no ill effects, rules creep or possiblitly for 'intorturation' but I haven't thought about it much yet although some verbage for allowable accesories only or something should probably be included.... write a letter.

    This is the second time I have gone through this P/S mess.
    I never would have removed my P/S, as it does make steering much too hard for my old upper body.
    But WOW I never kicked over a hornets nest without paying a price either.
    No hard feelings, interesting thread.
    I knew the answers before I posted, as I said in my earlier post.
    If someone will rent me an IT car next summer, I will race with you Guys at New Hampsire.
    If not, I'll just have to work the grid.
