Website Disclaimer
This page explains the general legal notices and disclaimers that apply to information published on ChampCar websites, including schedules, event details, rules references, results, historical archives, media, and linked resources.
Important
Website content is provided for general informational purposes. Official race control instructions, current BCCR rules, supplemental rules, event notices, waivers, registration terms, and staff directives control actual event operations and participation.
1. General information only
The content on ChampCar websites is provided for general informational purposes only. While we try to keep information accurate and useful, we do not guarantee that all content is complete, current, error free, or suitable for every purpose.
Website content may include summaries, quick references, promotional descriptions, historical material, sponsor information, media, schedules, pricing references, technical overviews, and operational guidance. These may be updated, corrected, or removed at any time.
2. Rules and event authority
The website may reference the BCCR, supplemental rules, technical guidance, notices, and event procedures. Those references are for convenience and do not reduce or replace the authority of official ChampCar documents and staff decisions.
- The current BCCR and event supplemental rules control over older pages, summaries, social posts, archived materials, and informal explanations.
- Race Control, Tech, Registration, Operations, and designated event officials have authority to interpret and apply rules and procedures during events.
- Track-specific rules, waiver requirements, access restrictions, and safety procedures may also apply.
- If there is any conflict between a website summary and an official event communication, the official event communication controls.
3. Schedules and event information
Event dates, session times, move-in details, paddock information, staffing, garages, pit lane assignments, links, maps, and similar event details may change because of weather, facility direction, safety concerns, operational needs, staffing, timing issues, or other circumstances.
- Published schedules are subject to change.
- Posted track information may vary by facility and by event weekend.
- Entry counts, availability, pricing, rental inventory, and deadlines may change without notice.
- Official event-day instructions from staff control over earlier website content.
4. Results, standings, and timing
Live timing, unofficial results, points summaries, standings, and race-related statistics may be delayed, incomplete, provisional, or later corrected.
- Timing feeds may depend on third-party systems, transponders, internet connections, or facility infrastructure.
- Unofficial or preliminary results are subject to review, penalties, corrections, and official confirmation.
- Archive pages and winners lists are compiled in good faith, but older materials may contain gaps, inconsistencies, or errors.
5. Technical and build information
Technical pages, build guides, FAQs, examples, and general explanations are provided to help members understand ChampCar processes, but they are not engineering advice, professional inspection advice, or binding rules interpretations by themselves.
- Teams are responsible for building, maintaining, and presenting their cars in compliance with the current rules.
- Published examples or summaries do not guarantee legality of any specific vehicle, modification, or setup.
- Official Tech review, event inspection, and current written rules control.
6. Historical and archive materials
Historical pages, old rulebooks, old schedules, archived event materials, and legacy ChumpCar content are provided for reference, club history, and general interest.
- Archived rulebooks and legacy documents are not intended to be used to build or class a current car unless specifically stated otherwise.
- Historical content may reflect older leadership, policies, naming, logos, sponsors, event procedures, or classing systems.
- Some archived information may be incomplete due to the age of the material or limits in original records.
7. Third-party links and services
ChampCar websites may link to third-party services such as registration platforms, livestreams, timing systems, payment processors, Google Docs, sponsors, maps, forms, and social platforms.
- We do not control third-party sites or services and are not responsible for their content, availability, privacy practices, security, or performance.
- External links are provided for convenience and do not necessarily mean ChampCar endorses every statement, product, or service on the linked site.
- Your use of third-party services is governed by their own terms and policies.
8. Media and promotional content
Website photos, videos, livestream clips, social media embeds, sponsor materials, event graphics, and promotional copy are provided for informational, archival, and promotional purposes.
- Promotional content may simplify or summarize club activities and may not include every limitation, condition, or safety requirement.
- Photos and videos may depict past events, prior car builds, prior sponsors, or historical conditions that do not exactly match current operations.
- Use of media on the site does not grant permission to reuse ChampCar-owned or licensed media outside applicable law or written permission.
9. Site availability and errors
We do not guarantee that the site will always be available, uninterrupted, secure, or free from errors. Pages, documents, databases, timing feeds, uploaded files, and linked resources may occasionally be unavailable, outdated, or incomplete.
- We may change, suspend, or remove pages, features, or services at any time.
- We may correct errors, inaccuracies, or omissions without prior notice.
- We are not responsible for delays or interruptions caused by hosting, software, providers, internet conditions, facility issues, or events outside our control.
10. No professional advice
Nothing on this site is legal, financial, tax, medical, mechanical, engineering, insurance, or professional safety advice.
- You should consult your own attorney for legal matters.
- You should consult qualified mechanics, builders, engineers, safety professionals, and inspectors for vehicle and race-preparation matters.
- You should not rely on website summaries alone for decisions involving compliance, safety, risk, or significant spending.
11. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, ChampCar disclaims liability for losses or damages arising out of reliance on website content, temporary unavailability, broken links, inaccurate summaries, third-party service interruptions, or later-corrected information.
Website use is at your own risk. This disclaimer does not replace or limit any separate waivers, releases, registration terms, or event participation agreements that may apply to members, teams, drivers, crew, volunteers, media, or spectators.
12. Updates to this disclaimer
We may update this Website Disclaimer from time to time. The most current version will be posted on this page with a revised effective date. Continued use of the site after changes are posted means you accept the updated version.
