<VV> [fastvair] Re: First autocross article

It is not the safety /tech inspectors job to classifly cars(safey/ 
tech???). It is the entrants job and they received a book of rules and 
classification to do it with.
   Having said that:, if you really care there is a protest procedure.
There were lots of experienced competitiors to ask about classification 
including the event organizers.

Yes the car belongs in SM.
If it really had pure street tires, the 3.1 probably didn't affect the 
outcome.

We were glad to have him and the article.

Nope, a 3.1 is not legal in SS, but keep in mind that classification is 
primarily the responsibility of the competitors, not the organizers.  
If the car looked stock and he didn't bring it up, then likely no one 
knew to tell him or protest the car.
