Message However, since you brought it up, I had a quick scan of the regs. Speed limits are suggested, not mandatory.

sec. 2.2 states:
Courses must be tight enough so that cars run the entire course
in their lower gears. Speeds on straight stretches should not
normally exceed the low 60’s (mph) for the fastest Stock and
Street Prepared category cars. The fastest portions of the course
shall be those most remote from spectators and property. Turns
should not normally allow speeds in excess of 45 mph in unprepared
cars. It must be remembered that sites themselves vary
and not all sites will safely support the speeds shown in these
guidelines (see Section 1.3). Conformity to these speed guidelines
does not preclude reasonable and prudent consideration of
the conditions encountered.[/i][/b]

However, the most important paragraph precedes sec 2.2:

[b][i]It would be possible to set extremely strict and rigid limits on Solo
events regarding speed and/or course dimensions. However, it is
not the intent of these rules to outlaw event sites which cannot
accommodate a course of certain stated dimensions, or create the
impression that, so long as some magic speed limit is not
exceeded, these rules are adhered to.

Again, these limitations are for those adhering to the strict SCCA solo 2 rules, but have nothing to do with insurance, which, I believe, you asked about.

My Zs are hybrid vehicles, they run on gasoline and money

times change, people change, but the Z32 still kicks ass.

I was more wondering how you set your climate control to 22*
lol, it would be that fastest freezer on wheels!
