Rotary Engine Eligibility for Super Touring Light

[lawtonglenn]

.

while I am sure the intent of your interpretation Greg is spot on,
as an semi-professional lawyer, I am afraid the words do not support
it, and will need to be changed.

specifically, the eligibility section 9.1.4.B is where the IT allowance is defined.

in the allowed engine section 9.1.4.3.I.2 the rotary engines are
specifically allowed, but there is no direct tie-in to IT cars,
and so that means that the rotary engines are allowed for ST builds

.

without the fuel cell AND a dash cross bar on the cage, (I have neither)
an IT build will not meet the other ST specs
so... what needs to be proposed is a change to the wording
.

FROM

"Any GCR listed IT cars, 1985 and newer, under their current IT
specifications may compete in STU. GCR listed ITS, ITA, ITB,
and ITC cars with reciprocating piston engines of 2 liters and less
engine displacement, 1985 and newer, may compete in STL under
their current IT specifications"

TO

"Any GCR listed IT cars, 1985 and newer, under their current IT
specifications may compete in STU. GCR listed ITS, ITA, ITB,
and ITC cars with reciprocating piston engines of 2 liters and less
engine displacement, or rotary engines as specified in 9.1.4.3.I.2,
[S]1985 and newer,[/S] may compete in STL under their current IT specifications"

and I guess while we are at it, we should eliminate the 1985 redundancy, since
IT cars aren't allowed engine swaps, there is no need to invoke the 1985 rule
independently for the car and the engine.

so, if nobody else has proposed this yet, I will have to go learn how... Greg, will you take the ball for me?
