T1.1 Technical Inspection

The following requirements and restrictions will be enforced through technical inspection. Noncompliance must be corrected and the car re-inspected before the car is allowed to operate under

power.

T1.2 Modifications and Repairs

T1.2.1 Once the vehicle has been presented for judging in the Cost or Design Events, or submitted for

Technical Inspection, and until the vehicle is approved to compete in the dynamic events, i.e. all the inspection stickers are awarded, the only modifications permitted to the vehicle are those directed by

the Inspector(s) and noted on the Inspection Form.

T1.2.2 Once the vehicle is approved to compete in the dynamic events, the ONLY modifications permitted to the vehicle are those listed below. They are also referenced in Part C of the Formula SAE Rules – Static Event Regulations.

a. Adjustment of belts, chains and clutches b. Adjustment of brake bias

c. Adjustment of the driver restraint system, head restraint, seat and pedal assembly d. Substitution of the head restraint or seat insert for different drivers

e. Adjustment to engine operating parameters, e.g. fuel mixture and ignition timing, and any software calibration changes

f. Adjustment of mirrors

g. Adjustment of the suspension where no part substitution is required, (except that springs, sway bars and shims may be changed)

h. Adjustment of tire pressure

i. Adjustment of wing angle, but not the location j. Replenishment of fluids

k. Replacement of worn tires or brake pads

l. The changing of wheels and tires for “wet” or “damp” conditions as allowed in Part D of the

FSAE Rules – Dynamic Event Regulations. m. Recharging low voltage batteries

n. Recharging high voltage accumulators

T1.2.3 The vehicle must maintain all required specifications, e.g. ride height, suspension travel, braking capacity, sound level and wing location throughout the competition.

T1.2.4 Once the vehicle is approved for competition, any damage to the vehicle that requires repair, e.g. crash damage, electrical or mechanical damage will void the Inspection Approval. Upon the completion of the repair and before re-entering into any dynamic competition, the vehicle MUST be re-submitted to Technical Inspection for re-approval.

ARTICLE 2: GENERAL DESIGN REQUIREMENTS T2.1 Vehicle Configuration

The vehicle must be open-wheeled and open-cockpit (a formula style body) with four (4) wheels that are not in a straight line.
