SCC, where VW friends have VW fun!!
Har modtaget denne mail fra SCC holdet:
Attention all racers! The Norwegian Drag Race Association has added the following rules for the 2009 season:
Quote:
" Paragraph 1.14 Parts/oil tray.
Alle cars with an ET below 11.49sec./402m are to be equipped with a device that collects parts and oil in the case of an engine failure. For cars with ET below 7,50, see FIA rulebook.
Approved are a "diaper" configuration, alternatively a collecting tray. A tray is to be fitted between the crossmember sides and stretch from vibration damper to the flywheel housing.
Spill edges should be 5cm(2") tall, and only have minimal holes for steering rods, hoses, etc. A flameproof absorption mat should be securely fastened in the bottom of the tray and is to be replaced if needed. On cars with automatic transmissions it is also recommended with such a device under the transmission/converter. "
End quote.
The rules are made for front engine RWD cars, but also applies to aircooled vw´s.
In the US there´s already a "diaper" type device for sale for those who want to be on the forefront: http://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/detail.php?id=628089
The SCC crew has begun the work on an alternative "diaper" product, our aim is to make this available for purchase/loan/rent at this years event.
We will strive to make a simple, reasonable but fully approved solution for easy fitting to all old VW´s of every kind. More info to come!
SCC welcomes this as a positive rule that will drastically reduce the number of cleanups and give both racers and audience a more exciting weekend!!!
Best regards
SCC Crew
