The organisers would have to be seriously dumb to accept this in a historic event..!
Funny is that here in France there was what everyone called "the hidden warrior" Mk1 Escort RS2000, with HTP and everything. For years, people had been complaining that the engine wasn't right, that the pinto was over bored, head was not a holbay one and so on... Then came the checks in June 2015 after an organiser decided to have a look at it. It was all legal ! But people still complained.
The real parameter was and still is the thing between the wheel and the seat..
