Although this car had a shield around it’s accusump, the lines going to it were unshielded. We also required the shield to cover the ends of the accusump as well.
Seat belts and sub belts should be mounted following the guidelines put forth in the rule book. We saw some really unsafe seat mount and harness installs and fortunately everyone got them fixed before the event. These fails could have been avoided by a simple read through of the rules.
We were almost going to fail this car but we realized that the fuel cell and the entire fuel system were placed inside this fabricated aluminum box. Pass! Also, we require that either the stock fuel tank or an FIA/SFI certified fuel cell be used.
We did give some waivers on a few fuel cells that can be certified if you pay extra for the cert but didn’t have the cert when the drivers were able to prove to use that their cell was the exact same part number as a certifiable cell.
So follow these tips and tech inspection for The Drift League or any other race organization will not only be a piece of cake but in preparing for it, you will have a safer car as well! See you at our next event!
