Hey look, now we can't protest McCrary's RX8 :-(

The SEB recommends the addition of a new paragraph to 13.1, as follows:
“Front bumpers, rear bumpers, body trim pieces and attachment points may be reinforced to prevent or repair
damage from hitting cones. Reinforcements that are not visible to the exterior of the car are allowed. Such
repairs and/or reinforcements may serve no other purpose.”

Interpretation: The SEB recommends filling all front bumpers with concrete to avoid damaging them in the event of an impact. Make the cones pay.

You shouldn't be running an autocross car at the track. ;-)

heh, no new bodywork rule for A-mod:

#19119 response to letter #17810 (cockpit bodywork)

The SEB is recommending the following changes to 18.4.A and 18.4.B:
A. Bodywork
“1. Any bodywork used must be made of metal, fiberglass, or other suitable fire resistant materials. Body panels are not required
except as specified in section 18.4.A.3.

B. Chassis
“14. The sides, front, and back of the cockpit area must be at least as high as the driver’s waist.
