ChampCar Endurance Series

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.

Q.
We are likely getting a Moroso Oil Accumulator, which is 10pts in the BCCR. Does this include the oil filter relocation kit that is needed per the instructions of the oil accumulator?
The alternative is drilling and tapping the block, which we don't want to do.

A.
You can use the adapter that comes in the Accusump kit. Thank you for asking.
Don't forget the Accusump lines must be shielded if they pass through the cockpit. Also if there is a pressure relief valve on the canister, and the canister is in the cockpit, you must shield the valve as well.
