All cars, no matter what which event they are intended for, must undergo a technical inspection. If you arrive at the track with a car which we feel is inherently unsafe, you will not be allowed to participate until the deficiency has been corrected.
The list below is a summary of our requirements. Detailed descriptions are provided in the AROSC Competition Code.
Driver Restraint: Factory seat belts (3-point minimum), in good condition are required. 5-Point or
6-point harnesses are highly recommended.
Roll Bars: Open cars (convertibles) must be equipped with rollover protection. Factory rollover
protection is acceptable, however, if it is built into the top, the top must be in place while on track.
After market rollbars must be functional and must have a cross brace.
Driver Restraint: An SFI 16.1 or, FIA 8853/98 or 8854/98 (with homologation numbers C-xxx.T98 or
D-xxx.T98) rated driver restraint system is required. These are all 5- or 6-point harness systems.
They must be mounted according to the manufacturer's specifications. The restraint system must be current
and in good condition.
Roll Bars: Open cars (convertibles) must be equipped with rollover protection. Factory targa-top
rollover protection is acceptable if it provides 2 inches of clearance between the roofline and the drivers
helmet when the driver is seated in a normal driving position.
Fire Extinguisher: A 2.5 lb BC automotive fire extinguisher mounted within reach of the driver is
required.
Misc: A scatter is required when running a non-stock flywheel. Windshields must be either safety
glass or Lexan® (polycarbonate). Wire wheels are not normally allowed (contact the Director
of Tech and Safety if you have a question).
