and stem protection is allowed. Remove wheel weights. No tractor type tires for Youth Class.
WINDSHIELD- This must be removed. You must have 2 places of #9 wire, banding, strapping or chain in
windshield area to protect driver/ passenger. You should mount this from the roof to the cowl panel. It
must not be attached to the hood.

material.
HOODS- These can be secured in 6 places with 2 strands of #9 wire, banding or chain.
FUEL TANKS- IMPORTANT: ANY fuel system that is unsafe will NOT pass. Stock fuel tanks can be left in if
they are mounted in front of the rear axle. ABSOLUTELY NO stock tank mounted in your back seat area.
Tanks made of steel must have a 4 point hold down bolted to floor with a minimum of a 2” washer on
the underside of car. All hoses must be DOUBLE CLAMPED AT ALL CONNECTIONS. Electric fuel pumps
