I'm sure that a lot of you low budget guys are going over 250, and blowing your windows out.  Stop racing and get a Salt Fever pill for the cure.

What about us BNI only members? where's our voice?

Now that I know who attends and THINK about It. BNI Members are pretty well represented.

•              Rules Committee Coordinator  (appointed by SCTA board)
•             The Chair of each Category committee or his designee
•             1 Representative from each SCTA Club
•             2 SCTA Board members
•             1 USFRA Representative
•             Car Technical Chair
•             Motorcycle Technical Chair

I'll bet even the USFRA Representative is a BNI Member.

I apologize for my off the cuff remarks.

USFRA sends two reps to the party. ECTA gets the proposed changes and are welcome to voice input.

Has anyone heard about the new rule changes for replacing all stock glass in vehicles with lexan? My main question is it going to include the replacement of the stock laminated safety glass windshields? This new rule will also be inclusive of all production vehicles.

When I spoke with Pat Riley about this, he said he hadn't heard about it. There is a board meeting this weekend, and he said he would check and let me know. He was getting a couple of other clarifications for me, in writing, anyway.

Fred,

For general information, what ever happened at the meeting is only part of the process. It has to be presented to the board and then the board votes on it. So all I am saying is the process is not over.

  Yea Tom I forgot that part, I was at a rep meeting when the new rules were presented to the board, one of them was to[ limit rear spoilers to not overhang the rear of the car ] this was not approved by the board. PHEW

Kama Sutra??  :-o  Hummm . . . I think I missed that part of the rule book.  Probably in the Motorcycle rules . . .
