I recieved my 2003 Competition licencealong with the 2003 Blue Book this morning. Theres a used freindly tome! As far as I can tell the regs are either very lax or very stringent, not sure which apply to my car and which don't, clear as mud!

Generally you will find that the series/championship you are entering will have its own specific regulations and will refer to the relavant regs in the blue book....

you are correct though it it the most well written book ever not....

For the TVR Car Club Speed Championship, the technical regs are simple: it has got to be a TVR!

Peter how complicated is the handicap system devised for the TVR speed championship, i.e. is a standard car a viable proposition, as I've deliberately kept away from tweeks, so far, with this is mind. Maybe not a full season this time round but I'm seriously thinking about giving it a go.

When is a car not standard, I apreciate that roll bars are an acceptable mod but all else include brake upgrades are, I think .
Maybe it'll be easier to get one of the info packs .

If it comes to it, you can compete in just about anything. But I'd strongly advise to you keep the car standard and spend any spare cash you have on upgrading the driver. Most TVR competitors stick to the standard production category BTW, where virtually no mods are allowed. There's a discussion forum at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/TVR_Speed_Champ where you can chat this through with the rest of the TVR sprint community, if you're interested.

Cheers,
