Proposed Regulation

4.6  In-Car Cameras / Radios

The In-Car Cameras / Radios section in the current GCRs applies in its entirety. 

All vehicles participating in any CACC-sanctioned Vintage race event must have a securely mounted
functioning, forward-facing camera that poses no visual or physical obstruction to the driver and is
secured to the body, chassis, or interior of the vehicle via a stationary mounting device suitable to
withstand the conditions of motor sports usage. The camera must record a clear horizontal
forward view whenever on track. Vehicles with logbooks from another Vintage sanctioning body, which does not currently require in-car cameras, may be permitted to race subject to the approval of the Steward. Failure to provide any available video footage to officials when requested may result in penalties per the CACC General Competition Regulations.


4.7.1.1   Interior and exterior trim including required windows are to be in place.  Delete in its entirety


4.11.3.1   The Tow Hooks section of the current GCRs applies in its entirety, with the exception of a unique case such as an old racing car onto which standard tow hook(s) cannot be attached without damage. The specific approval by the event Scrutineer is required in such cases.


4.12.2.3  No form of nitrous oxide or similar performance enhancing additives may be used.

Reason for Rule Change

4.6 In-Car Cameras - This regulation should be consistent with Race requirements, particularly as we are attempting to cut out / significantly penalize on-track incidents in Vintage. Video is a big help to the officials dealing with this. The only caveat is that SOVREN currently still does not require them and they are the only significant external source of BCHMR entrants.

4.7.1.1, Trim - This topic is already covered in in more detail in section 5.6, plus virtually every Vintage racing car has some interior and/or exterior trim removed, so this particular rule is unenforeable / irrelevant in practice.

4.11.3.1 The tow hook requirements for all cars should be identical / similar for the safety and efficiency of emergency workers.

4.12.2.3 No change to the intent of the regulation, just allowing for the ethanol in current pump fuel being an oxygenate.
