What do use to monitor your revs?? I can see you stock cluster's tach isn't functioning but can't see a different tach that you're maybe using? Come race HC nationals in September!! Its been since '06!!

Hopefully they'll allow traction bars so you can drive straight. If they do, are you racing in H1?

Just curious....if they are illegal....why?

1. Not safe
2. Offer an awesome advantage

Which is it?

You'll have to submit a rules request. But in this instance, explain how you're not using it as a performance modification or advantage (since you're only attaching one side) but rather a timely repair solution to make the national championships-otherwise a complete repair job would put you in a time frame to NOT make the national championships.

What they can also do (they have done it before) is to explain and ask ALL H1 racers if they're OK with running a bent car and your need to attach one side of the traction bar in order for the car to track straight.

It's worth a shot. Worst they can do is say "No" or deny your request.

Or........... you can whack the other side?
Naw, Like Jonathan says submit a request, and see what comes of it.
You never know, stranger things have happened.
