2010 car regulations

Postby miseli » Thu Feb 04, 2010 1:36 pm

Hello all,

Regulations for the 2010 challenge are set to come out on February 12. Several key changes are being made from 2009 and, as a result, things are taking a little longer to agree upon and finalise.

Happy New year everyone. Yes, as Marc says the rules for 2010 are going through the final stages and hopefully will be posted everywhere end of next week. They will certainly go on the Tasmanian website immediately and more than likely NSW and Victoria as well. Unfortunately the National web site is down and probably won't be coming back but fear not, a new web site is being created and this hopefully will be up and running at about the same time in some form or another. Details will be broadcast as soon as they are finalised. Since I am the idiot actually writing up the new rules I have to point out that they are not solely of my creation but an amalgam of ideas, calculations, tests, simulations and lots of arguments that have been going on since before the event in Melbourne, so I don't want any snide remarks from anyone who thinks that they have been picked on, got at or just feel badly done by. After competing for 9 years I know what it's like, we never fully liked the rules and always thought someone else was getting favourable treatment. So get over it and get on with the task in hand. Now that I've got that off my chest I will be available to answer any and all questions relating to the rules and their interpretation as long as they are relevant. What I cannot answer or am unsure of I will check cross check with head scrutineer Stan Woithe and/or fellow conspirator Ian Gardner so you can be pretty safe that the answer you get will be as accurate as possible and unlikely to get countermanded at national scrutineering. I will also put up a synopsis of the rules but these are for reference only. You MUST read ALL the rules (both documents) CAREFULLY as there are many small changes that will affect your car and the way races are run. I will elaborate on some of the things that have been allowed in the past but will not be tolerated any more in later posts. Don't forget, READ.

Hello all,

The 2010 regulations that are currently on the NSW site are a DRAFT version only and should NOT be there. There have been several changes made since then and the official finalised copy doesn't come out until February 12.
The final version will be uploaded onto the Tas website and also posted here tomorrow. Other state websites should soon follow.

Until then, try to avoid this draft version until it has been replaced with the final copy.

Thanks for the clarification Mark.

I was dumbfounded when my friend insisted that they were on the site and it wasn't today till i saw it. I was aware that it would be out on 12 of Feb, but i thought i might have been a leak. :twisted:

Thanks again.

I have just today sent out the final rules for 2010. Marc will have them on the Tasmanian web site straight away. There will be a new national website <www.modelsolaraustralia.org> up and running by about Tuesday and the rules will be there. Unfortunately the rules on the NSW site are a draft not meant for publication and so cannot be trusted. Prem Kumar is away this week which means that the wrong rules will stay there until she returns so please let everyone know the situation. The only correct versions are all dated 12 February 2010 on the front page. After you have read them fully and carefully I will be available to answer all those difficult questions.
