I was talking with the scrutineer for this weekends dual sprints and his opinion was that an Elise would be OK to run in the dual sprints but not the multi-car in the arvo.

Rationale was that there was body structure above and behind the drivers head unlike say, an MGB

The roll bar on an Elise is FIA Homologated IIRC, I've got the PDF around here somewhere.
