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.

2020-01-20 - Added Splitter Materials - Canards

Q.
Hello, the interpretation says that the splitter is a horizontal aero component. Does this mean that if a splitter diffuses at the back or has endplates/canards these would be additional points?

To further clarify my request how many points would these be:

Splitter that has diffusers in wheel wells
The point value for each canard
Vertical spat connected to the splitter

CanardEnd Plate

A.
Any added aero component outside of the defined components will be charged points based on square feet of material.
