CLARIFICATIONS:
Here are some clarifications that have been made by NASA TT
Administration when competitors have had questions about the
rules. These clarifications qualify as "Technical Bulletins" under
section 6.1 of the rules, and should be treated as if they were
written directly into the rules.
Clarification--Engine Blocks: Aftermarket engine blocks made by
companies other than your car's original manufacturer, or those
made by your manufacturer, but that are not identical to your
original equipment constitute an ENGINE SWAP. It doesn't matter
if they are the same displacement as OEM. All engine swaps
need to be assessed by the Regional and National TT Director
on an individual basis. These blocks allow for a much more
"aggressive" modified rebuild due to their higher cylinder wall
strenth, yet the rebuild would otherwise cost the same number
of points as someone with the same size block that could not be
as aggressive. We will charge you points accordingly, depending
on the situation.
Clarification--Rear Suspension Upgrades: The combination of
a panhard rod addition, torque arm addition, and changing from
a 4-link to 3-link rear end suspension will be assessed +4, +4,
+6 (for relocated rear suspension mounting points), for a total
of +14 points.
