1. The chassis must be stock and cannot be cut except to add body mounts,
reinforce and or replace pickup tabs, add rear axle retainer or add adjustable
brush tension.
2. All magnets used shall be stock or stock replacement and of a ceramic
material only. Magnets cannot be cut and must remain in their stock location. No
material or method may be used to restrict the movement of the magnets.
3. Armature:
a) Must be stock or a hot stock (trued, balanced, epoxied, advanced
timed) Small cuts or drill marks for balancing only. No machining. No marks
along the entire length of the stacks. Excessive removal of material will not be
allowed. Tech director has final say. All arms used should be pre teched to avoid
DQ in post tech.
b) Must be a narrow gap/welded tab with red wire.
c) Must be minimum 5.8 ohms checked after a 5 minute cool down.
d) No dewinding.
3. Any flux collector used shall be stock and shall remain in it's stock location
and cannot be modified.
4 .Armature or axle bushings are not allowed unless they come stock on the car.

| 21. Drivers are responsible for their own behavior. Any misconduct will result in a warning followed by a disqualification. Any further misconduct may include being prohibited from racing in future events. Treat all racers with respect and race venues as your own. 22.
