I read the sporting regs (
http://www.24h2cv.be/2CVRT/Documents/reglement_sport_techn/2CV%20Racing%20Cup%202016%20-%20Reglement%20Sportif.pdf) a little last night, and a few things sprang out at me:
Do we need to bring 2, 9kg powder fire extinguishers? :
5.5
Each team must provide 2 powder extinguishers 9kg minimum valid and order operation and by hired vehicle. These extinguishers shall be presented to a member officer of the organization.
Couple of other "interesting" things that people should be aware of, unless I'm reading these wrong:
9.2
Each manager Team and all drivers must attend to the various briefings for the duration of these and sign the attendance sheet, on pain of a penalty Financial 100 €
The maximum duration of consecutive driving one pilot (stops included) can not exceed three hours.
After three hours of running a one-hour break is mandatory.
b) When the order is given to use the Code 60 during the race, all monitoring stations
will present purple flags or signs with the indication '60', which will be maintained until the end of
the procedure. All vehicles shall immediately reduce speed to 60 km / h maximum, the
overtaking will be banned.
(you should be aware of what revs makes 60km/h)
16.1
During the pit stop, maximum 4 people can intervene directly on the vehicle. People helping the driver to fasten the harness are not included in these 4 people. The mechanics must at least wear overalls, which protects against fire from heat, fire and possible injury. Shorts is prohibited
(Those are just people doing work on the car. Note that it doesn't say "flame-retardant" overalls. Just overalls.)
16.9
Transport fuel: Inside the paddock and pits, fuel transportation can not do that in jerrycans stamped by the technical control. Jerrycans transported must be secured to the transporting vehicle. Fuel transportation attendants must be provided,
throughout the operation, a powder extinguisher 9 kg minimum, valid and in order operation
16.13
While refueling will take place in the special area provided for this purpose. When refueling takes place in the pit area, the driver change will be during it, but no further action will be permitted. Someone more outgoing driver can help the driver used to be equipped with seatbelts.
16.14
For the duration of the supply, the presence of the officer and his fire extinguisher. All supplies can be made at the beginning or end of a pit stop. The car must stay on its wheels during the course of refueling.
16.15
The driver may remain in his car throughout refueling but the engine must be stopped and the belt buckle open safety
16.16
The team leader must ensure that a mechanic with a valid extinguisher and serviceable operation (minimum capacity: 5 kg) is at least 2 meters and a maximum of 4 meters the car filling orifice throughout the refueling operation and that all
refueling staff, two mechanics maximum, specifically designated for this surgery. Each carries a flame retardant combination, a fireproof balaclava, fireproof shoes, solid and closed, flame retardant gloves and goggles or a helmet.
16.17
The attendant device "dead man" will not be counted in the staff performing the refueling.
16.19
The driver must halt the vehicle at the traffic light with access to the track. The attendant at the exit pit lane identifies the driver at the wheel, check the CT stickers and gives the signal the resumption of the track
(every time?)
