ChampCar Tech Desk

Official channel for ChampCar technical questions, interpretations, and VPI requests.

Before you submit a ticket

The Tech Desk is for rules clarifications and technical questions. It is not a post race tech line, a place to protest results, or a place to fish for how other teams built their cars.

Most questions can be answered by reviewing the current BCCR Rulebook. Please read the applicable section before submitting a ticket.

If your question is already covered clearly in the BCCR, your ticket may simply be answered with a reference to the rulebook section.

VPI request checklist

For all Vehicle Performance Index (VPI) requests you must include:

  • Year, make, model, and trim level
  • Engine size and engine horsepower
  • Drive type: FWD, RWD, AWD, or 4x4
  • Transmission type: automatic or manual
  • Car weight and all factory options that affect performance
  • A link to the vehicle on automobile-catalog.com or another site with full specifications if it is not listed there

Requests that do not include all required info and research will be denied without review.

2021-02-17 - C5 Corvette

Q.
I was wondering if we could get an established VPI for the C5 (97-04) Corvette? Also what would the Z06 VPI be? A high miles standard coupe can be found for similar pricing to some of the other cars already on the VPI list (Boxster, S550 Mustangs, NC Miata, etc).


A.
I cannot say it will not ever happen but I can say that the C5 Corvette will not be added to our VPI list for the foreseeable future. You may apply to run one in our EC class but it would be the race director's call to allow it depending on the track.
