    It means the car will not start in gear, or without the clutch pressed on real transmissions.

    Tom is exactly right. Our standard list of rules applies, same as they are every year. Alan will take care of that.

    Actually that rule only addresses auto transmissions so it shouldn't matter how a manual trans starts or not.

    This.....I would doubt the track will be super concerned about relocated batteries having a master kill switctch. We need to wait for the track to give Lori the correct rules per our situation.

    Is it true that we have to wear a full face helmut if car runs better than 14s?

    I have a 3/4 and I would hate to have to buy another.
