The 2015 American Iron, American Iron Extreme, and Spec Iron rules have been posted: https://www.nasaproracing.com/rules
I'm not sure what the intent of the new rules are, but under a reasonable interpretation, both Marshall's and my car are now illegal. Even in AIX...
Hopefully that wasn't the intent and the wording can be tweaked. Or not. I don't really care anymore...

It has to do with the specific wording of the allowance of third links inside the car. The intent wasn't to exclude what we are doing so hopefully it will get fixed.Quote:

Not sure how you are reading the revision. The intent wasn't to limit the third link wording (or what's been done to date), but to allow for the provision of modifying the floor pan for torque arm clearance - since torque arms weren't called out and don't pass through the floor.
I get the intent but the specific words make both of our cars illegal. It's being worked...Quote:

In my case, the current wording specifies that only one upper third link is allowed. Richard's issue is it says "three link OR torque arm". He has both.
