APPENDIX “G” – CLASSIFICATION OF AUTOMOBILES 2021 (Other than Karts)
These regulations shall apply to all automobiles other than Karts. The word “car” used
in these regulations shall have the same meaning as the word automobile. All
regulations mentioned under General Specification shall apply to all Groups and
Classes.
All competitors should be familiar with the Appendix C available on the SLAS
website, for license categories for respective classes.
G-01. CONSTRUCTION
1.1 BODY SHELL/ CHASSIS: The major structural part of the homologated
vehicle, constructed of all parts which are permanently attached (by welding,
brazing, bonding etc., around which are assembled the mechanical
components and the bodywork. Components or panels which are attached by
means of removable fasteners are not considered to be part of the body shell.
The fitting of underbody protections is authorized in rallies only, provided that
these really are protections which respect the ground clearance, which are
removable, and which are designed exclusively and specifically in order to
protect the following parts: engine, radiator, suspension, gearbox, tank,
transmission, exhaust, extinguisher bottles. These protections must be made
from either aluminum alloy or steel and have a minimum thickness of 4 mm
and 2 mm for steel. Nevertheless, it is possible to reinforce the upper part with
metal or composite ribs and to add non-structural composite parts. Underbody
protections may extend the whole width of the underside part of the front
bumper only in front of the front wheel axis. For Formula cars the
Chassis/Frame should be of tubular Steel construction and of adequate
strength.
The Silhouette and Plan View must remain as per the original design. The
wheel archers/ fenders may be extended, however the wheel rim or the Tyre
cannot be jutting out of the fender when the wheels are straight.
1.2 BODY PARTS:
Components or panels not considered to be part of the body shell, which are
attached by means of removable fasteners are not considered to be a part of
the body shell.
All Cars (except formula) should have the bonnet stay Rod.
- 4-
For all classes Front and rear Bumpers can be replaced by proper bumpers Similar or
Identical to the original Bumper. However only bumpers manufactured out of fiberglass
or plastic will be allowed to be used as replacement bumpers. Front fender design
cannot be changed, material could be metal, fiberglass or plastic.
The chief scrutinizer of the Meet may exclude an Automobile, the construction
of which is deemed to be not fit to race or dangerous.

for a minimum distance of 3 mm measured downstream of a plane
perpendicular to the rotational axis situated at a maximum of 50 mm
upstream of a plane passing through the most upstream extremities of
the wheel blades, this diameter must be complied regardless of the
temperature conditions. This rule will apply to all events except for hill
climbs.
The external diameter of the restrictor at its narrowest point, must be less
than 42 mm, and must be maintained over a distance of 5 mm to each
side.
The mounting of the restrictor onto the turbocharger must be carried out
in such a way that two screws have to be entirely removed from the body
of the compressor, or from the restrictor in order to detach the restrictor
from the compressor. Attachments by means of needle screws are not
authorized.
For the installation of this restrictor, it is permitted to remove material

from the compressor housing, and add to it, for the sole purpose of
attaching the restrictor onto the compressor housing. The head of the
screws must be pierced so that they can be sealed.
The restrictor must be made from a single material and may be pierced
solely for the purpose of mounting and sealing which must be carried out
between the mounting screws, between the restrictor (or the restrictor
- 52 -

Appendix 'A' for some of the more specific regulations.
5.3.3 CHASSIS
(a) The chassis must be of tubular steel construction with no stress bearing panels
except bulkhead and under tray, curvature of the under tray must not exceed
2.54cm. The under tray/floor (E 13.2.4) extends from the bulkhead forward of the
pedals to the bulkhead between the fuel tank and the engine. Minocqua chassis
construction is prohibited. Stress bearing panels are defined as, sheet metal fixed
to the frame by welding or bonding or by rivets, bolts or screws which have centres
closer than 15.25cm. Bodywork must not be used as stress bearing panels. The
use of stabilized materials, composite materials using carbon and/or Kevlar
reinforcement is prohibited.
(b) Cars built after 1.1.87 and before 1.1.95 The internal cross section area of the
cockpit from the driver's feet to behind his seat, shall nowhere be less than 700
cm2 and a minimum width must be 25cm over the whole length of the cockpit. The
only intrusion permitted into the cross sectional area being the steering column.
(c) Cars built after 1.1.95 The free internal cross section of the cockpit from the soles
of the driver's feet to behind his seat shall at no point be less that 700cm2. The
only thing which may encroach on this area is the steering column. A free vertical
section of minimum 25cm width maintained to a minimum height of 25cm with
corners of maximum 5cm radius must be maintained over the whole length of the
cockpit with the steering wheel removed. The driver normally seated in his driving
- 58 -
position with the seat belts fastened and the steering wheel in place must be able
to raise both legs together such that his knees reach the plane of the steering wheel
in the rearwards direction: this action must not be obstructed by any part of the car.

driving position and with his feet on the pedals in the inoperative position, shall not
be situated to the fore of the vertical plane passing through the centre line of the
front wheels.
(e) No engine oil or water tubes are permitted within the cockpit.
(f) Cars built after 1.1.95 -The chassis must include an impact-absorbing structure
fitted ahead of the front bulkhead of the tubular steel frame. This structure must be
independent of the bodywork and must be solidly fixed to the extremities of the
bulkhead (i.e. with bolts requiring tools for removal). It must constitute a box of
30cm minimum length, 15cmminimum height in any vertical section and 400cm2
minimum total cross section. It must be metallic using honeycomb sandwich
construction with a panel thickness of 15mm minimum. It is recommended, but not
mandatory, that this safety feature is fitted to older cars.
(h) Cars built after 1.1.96: Must be built with a LATERAL PROTECTION
STRUCTURE, defined as continuous panels whose projection on a
vertical plane parallel to the longitudinal axis of the car shall be at
least 15cm high, shall extend on either side of the car, at a minimum
distance of 55cm from the car's longitudinal centre line between at
least the transverse planes passing through the fuel tank rear face
and the frontal extremity of the minimum cockpit opening, and at a
minimum distance of 35cm from the car's longitudinal centre line
between at least the transversal planes passing through the above
extremity and the front rollover bar hoop. These panels shall be made
from a composite material of 30cm2 minimum cross section with a
honeycomb core in metal giving adequate resistance to
compression. The external skins shall be of aluminum alloy of a
minimum thickness of 0.5mm or made up of another assembly of
materials of equivalent efficiency. The panels must be securely
attached to the bottom and at the upper extremity to the main
structure of the car in such a manner as to ensure absorption of a
lateral impact. The radiators may play the role of protective panels or
of transversal struts. The periphery of the bodywork covering the
Lateral Protection Structure, when viewed from below, must be
curved upwards with a minimum radius of 5cm, and a maximum
radius of 7cm with the exception of air entry and exit openings into
the Lateral Protection Structure. The floor of the side pod must reject
the plan of the upper surface. The floor is to be in the same plane as
the under tray in both directions, i.e. transverse and longitudinal,
subject to all points being within 2.54cm of any at plane situated
under the car (see Art 3.1).
