So long as everyone knows from the Specific Regulations what is legal, (and Jeremy Hall checks them all - which he has) then no-one can complain. The only problem arises when a competitor doesn't read the SRs. I once had a european E Type (heavily developed with cooling tubes to the rear brakes etc) complain because a Corvette was running better tyres than him. He said he would have to driver dangerously fast to keep up and that the tyres were illegal. He was stupid enough to say this in front of he FIA Stewards!

I pointed out the facts to him and never sent him entry forms again.
