Rally Trials:
Vehicle Safety Equipment Requirements
1. Each competition vehicle must complete and pass a vehicle safety (“Tech”) inspection conducted in accordance with the RallyCross rules. The purpose of the safety inspection is to ensure that vehicles meet safety requirements; it is not intended to verify whether a vehiclemeets the preparation allowances for a particular class.
2. At a minimum, all vehicles must be in good mechanical condition.
3. The Current SCCA Time Trial rules for Hill Climbs for Rollbars, Driver Restraint, Seats and Fire Suppression will be used.

Hill Climb Rules
Minimum Vehicle Safety Equipment
All vehicles must have the following safety equipment at a minimum: driver restraints, roll bar or cage, fire extinguisher. Vehicles shall meet the safety requirements for the class in which they are log booked.

1. ROLL BAR SPECIFICATIONS
A roll bar is defined as a main hoop and diagonal placed behind the driver and supplemented by two braces. The roll bar must be designed to withstand compression forces resulting from the weight of the car coming down on the roll structure, and to take fore-and-aft loads resulting from the car skidding along the ground on the roll structure. The basic purpose of the roll bar is to protect the driver in case the vehicle rolls over.
A. One continuous length of tubing must be used for the hoop member with smooth continuous bends and no evidence of crimping or wall failure.
B. The top of the roll bar must be above the top of the driver’s helmet when the driver is in normal driving position.
C. The two (2) vertical members forming the sides of the hoop must be more than fifteen (15) inches apart (inside dimension), and it is desirable that it extend the full width of the cockpit.
D. An inspection hole of at least 3/16 inch diameter to facilitate verification of wall thickness might be required. It must be drilled in a non-critical area of a roll bar member at least three inches from any weld or bend.
E. All bolts and nuts shall be SAE Grade 5 or better, 5/16” minimum diameter.
F. Braces and portions of the main hoop subject to contact by the driver’s or passenger’s helmet, as seated normally and restrained by seatbelt and harness, must be padded with a non-resilient material such as Ethafoam (R) or Ensolite (R) or other similar material with a minimum thickness of one-half inch. Padding meeting SFI spec 45.1 or FIA 8857-2001 is strongly recommended.
G. The size of tubing to be used for the main hoop, braces and diagonals shall be determined on the basis of the weight of the car. The following minimum sizes are required and are based upon the weight of the car without the driver. Dimensions are nominal. 0.005” variation in wall thickness is allowed.
H. The roll bar hoop and all braces must be of seamless or DOM mild steel tubing (SAE 1010, 1020, 1025) or equivalent, or alloy steel tubing (SAE 4130). For cars logbooked before 1/1/16, existing ERW tubing is acceptable.
I. All welding should be of the highest possible quality with full penetration. Craters should be filled to the cross section of the weld, and undercut be no more than 0.01 inch deep.
J. All roll bars must be braced in a manner to prevent movement in a fore-and-aft direction with the braces attached within the top one-third of the roll hoop. At a minimum, two braces must be used, parallel to the sides of the car, and placed at the outer extremities of the roll bar hoop. Such braces should extend to the rear whenever possible. Diagonal lateral bracing must be installed to prevent lateral distortion of the hoop. In most cases, a lateral brace from the bottom corner of the hoop on the side to the top corner of the hoop on the other side is sufficient. Although installing the diagonal lateral brace in the mainhoop is the strongest (and hence most preferable) alternative, there may be instances where such an installation is not practical. In such situations, the installation of the diagonal brace running from the bottom of the fore/aft brace on one side to the top corner of the hoop on the other side is acceptable.

More than 1500 lbs. 1.50 x .120 or 1.75 x .095

1000 - 1500 lbs. 1.25 x .090

Less than 1000 lbs. 1.00 x .060

K. For convertible cars with a production year 1990 or later, a “Double Diagonal” or single diagonal rear brace between the fore/aft braces is acceptable. The braces do not need to extend to the fore/aft mounting plates but should extend more than half way down the fore/aft brace.
L. Removable roll bars and braces must be very carefully designed and constructed to be at least as strong as a permanent installation. If one (1) tube fits inside another tube to facilitate removal, the removable portion must fit tightly and must bottom on the permanent mounting,
and at least two (2) bolts must be used to secure each telescope section. The telescope section
must be at least eight (8) inches in length. One bolt is required if one end is welded to the main hoop.
M. It is recommended that all cars utilize a roll cage as defined in the current GCR.
N. Roll bars and braces must be attached to the frame of the car wherever possible. Mounting plates may be used for this purpose where desired.
O. In the case of cars with unitized or frameless construction, mounting plates may be used to secure the roll bar structure to the car floor. The important consideration is that the load be distributed over as large an area as possible. A backup plate of equal size and thickness must be used on the opposite side of the panel with the plates through-bolted together.
P. Mounting plates bolted to the structure shall not be less than 0.1875 (3/16) inch thick and the use of a back- up plate of equal size and thickness on the opposite side of the panel with the plates through-bolted together is recommended. A minimum of 3 bolts per plate is required for
bolted mounting plates.
Q. Mounting plates welded to the structure shall not be less than .080 inch thick. Whenever possible the mounting plate should extend onto a vertical section of the structure such as a door pillar.

2. FIRE SYSTEMS
All vehicles shall meet one of the following minimum requirements:
A. On-board fire systems per GCR
B. Halon 1301 or 1211, two (2) pound minimum capacity by weight.
C. Dry chemical, two (2) pound minimum with a positive indicator showing charge. Chemical: 10
BC or 1A10BC Underwriters Laboratory rating.
D. The fire extinguisher shall be securely mounted. All mounting brackets shall be metal and of the quick-release type.

3. DRIVER RESTRAINTS
All drivers shall utilize either a five, six- or seven-point restraint harness meeting one of the following: SFI specification 16.1 or 16.5, FIA specification 8853/1985 including amendment 1/92 FIA specifications 8853/98 and 8854/98. All harnesses shall bear labels bearing either SFI or FIA certification. Shoulder straps shall be separate. Two-inch shoulder straps shall only be used with head and neck devices. SFI and FIA harnesses are not subject to a time constraint but shall be in good condition (no cuts, abrasions, abnormal wear, etc.).

4. SEATS
It is highly recommended that the driver’s seat be replaced with a one-piece bucket type race seat. If used, the one-piece bucket type race seat shall be securely mounted, so as to provide fore/aft and lateral support.

5. DRIVER AND NAVIGATOR SAFETY REQUIREMENTS
1. A helmet meeting the current RallyCross requirements. If the vehicle does not have a front windshield, the driver shall wear goggles or a face shield
2. All occupants must at a minimum wear 100% cotton (no blends) outer wear that effectively covers the body from neck to ankles and wrists. All drivers must wear shoes that cover the entire foot. SCCA-compliant fire resistant clothing as listed in the current Club Racing GCR is highly recommended. This includes suits, gloves, socks, and shoes.
3. Head and neck restraint systems (HANS) are highly recommended but not mandatory.
4. Driver/passenger arm restraints are required for any vehicle that does not have a side window adjacent to the driver/passenger. Windows must be rolled up during competition
5. One passenger is allowed in the front passenger seat of a vehicle during competition. Passengers must be at least 15 years of age, current SCCA members and complete the required event waiver. Passengers must wear safety equipment that meets the driver’s safety equipment requirements of this section. The quality and rating of the passenger’s seat and restraints in the vehicle must be at least equal to those of the driver’s seat and restraints.

Additional Vehicle Requirements

Each competitor will be required to present their vehicle -fully muffled, seat belts in working order- to the Tech Inspection Team at 8AM. Vehicles shall not have leaking fluids or “enhanced” tires (no home-made studded tires). Vehicles with a high center of gravity or excessive noise may not be allowed to participate; this is at the discretion of the Event Chairman and Tech Inspector.

Each car owner must pick a car number to easily identify their car on course. Only one number is needed per car, not per driver. Numbers are first-come, first-serve per event, so register early. Please use magnets, or print/write large numbers on paper. The numbers must be readable from 100 feet away.

Multiple Drivers Per Car (Co-drivers)

There is a maximum of two co-drivers per heat. In other words, a single car can be used by a total of four people. Please work out the details with all drivers of the vehicle prior to registration to determine who you will partner with.
