Official channel for ChampCar technical questions, interpretations, and VPI requests.
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.
For all Vehicle Performance Index (VPI) requests you must include:
Requests that do not include all required info and research will be denied without review.
Q:
There is a current rule for Tubular Front subframe/K-member being 10pts (bolt on only).
Would this also apply to a rear tubular subframe? For example, a Pontiac Fiero has the engine mounted in the rear and uses a subframe that is essentially the same as a FWD front subframe except it wouldn’t have a steering rack. Would this also be considered 10 points? If not, how many?
A:
Bolt in subframe 10 points each Front or Rear
