Get off the stove Grandad.  You're too old to be riding the range.

Though I really don't see how an enclosed trailer is "unfair" to another racer (if you are "cheating" there are plenty of ways to do it without involving your trailer, as has been pointed out) it would be interesting to have the original proposer of the rule comment or discuss further why he thinks this is something that should be done and how he perceives the that an enclosed trailer is a problem.

Maybe there have been past events that have occurred?

I am not so sure it would apply in cars as much as it might in the motorcycles.

BTW, Mike is a very competent inspector, I am sure he has witnessed something to prompt this.

If I can't switch out the nitrous bottle in the trailer, I guess I will have to hide it under the gas tank!

I remember a vehicle at El Mirage that was banned for life for cheating, got caught running fuel in a gas class.

Is a record that important that you'd resort to cheating?

An armed SCTA guard per enclosed trailer perhaps?

I second that! :cheers:     Seriously though this sounds like someone in particular has it out for someone else in particular and this is the most roundabout way they can think of.

This is the problem of non racers writing rules.

I don't know what your definition of a "racer" is but Mike campaigns a very competitive VOT car.

The originator is a SCTA inspector. :roll:

And what is it that supposed to mean?

Some of you guys are no better than a bunch of cackling old women at a hair salon.  Cackle, cackle, cackle, squawk, squawk, squawk...  Maybe it's time to step away from the keyboard and find a hobby.
