So a couple things i'm noticing here.
Spoilers may no longer have sides?
Halon can still be used
The definition of bumper got fairly specific
Any of this stuff effect that super slick body on the camaro?
I interpret those spoiler rules as being very different, I do like the safety adjustments for the seat and I see them well warranted.
Talk amongst yourselves
Any additions to this that the ECTA is planning....

2008 Speed Trials RULES
*The rule change process is an ongoing one. Any active SCTA-BNI member may submit a
request for rule change or clarification at any time by obtaining the proper form from the SCTA
office or the registration trailer at an event. The form must be completely filled out and must
be submitted by US or email to the SCTA office. The forms will be routed through the
appropriate technical chair and committees for comment. When all appropriate research is
completed, issues will be put on the agenda for discussion at the next scheduled rules meeting
(usually in November of each year). Submissions received after September 1st of any year will
not be considered for that year’s agenda.
SECTION 1 GENERAL COMPETITION REQUIREMENTS
*1.B CLASSIFICATION:
If an appropriate class exists, a vehicle must run in that class. Any vehicle which is not legal for any class,
but meets all technical regulations, will run for time only. No trophies will be awarded for ”time only”
entries. Any questions regarding the proper classification of a vehicle should be directed to the
class chairperson as listed in Section 17.
*1.I PROTESTS:
All protests must be made in writing using an official SCTA Protest Form. The completed protest form must
be given to a Contest Board member prior to record certification or within 24 hours of the record
being certified. All protests require a fee of $100.00. This fee is refundable if the protest is upheld, and if
the protest is denied the fee is forfeited to the SCTA Treasurer. Protest forms will be available in the
registration area.
1.J TROPHIES:
Trophies are not awarded at all SCTA/BNI events. If it is determined by the Contest Board to award
trophies, Record and Performance trophies will be sent to the winners by mail after the conclusion of a
meet. Performance trophies will be awarded only to those entries that run within 3% of the record. When
an entrant qualifies, but does not set a record, a performance trophy will be awarded. Trophies and record
timing tags are awarded to the fastest record at the end of the event only. To obtain duplicate trophies
for Bonneville records contact the SCTA-BNI office.
1.M DRIVER LICENSING:
All new cars/drivers/riders or drivers/riders new to the car/course may be required to make runs at less than
full throttle or less than full course length. Successful completion of the license requirements shall

procedure, as determined by the Contest Board. ALL NEW DRIVERS/RIDERS SHALL ATTEND A ROOKIE

meet.

any category, except for Vintage engine classes hereinafter described. In XF, XO, XXF, XXO, V4 and V4F
classes, non-production engines or after-market blocks (even though they accept production crankshafts,
cams and cylinder heads) may not be used. All other engines that transmit the power through the wheels
only may run in Ù class. Only Streamliners and Unlimited Diesel Trucks may use more than one engine at
the same time. For any engine to be considered for cubic inch (cc) requirements, the engine shall have
contributed to the propulsion of the vehicle. Reaction propulsion engines are prohibited, except during
exclusive meets.
2.B FUELS:
