REV LIMITS on V8s- This season....
Mentioned on the Martini thread, now there's more.....
From Masters Historic Racing and "aimed at slowing the pace of development and controlling the costs of historic motor racing". "This year we are going to implement a year’s trial on the restriction of engine revs, starting with V8-engined cars competing in the Gentlemen Drivers and Pre-66 Touring Car championships. All V8-engined cars competing in these two Masters’ championships will be restricted to 7,000 rpm for 2015. From the lessons we learn during this coming season and, assuming that the results are successful, we plan to implement rev limits across all the series’ for all the various engine types competing from 2016. We believe that this new regulation is fair and reasonable and will require only modest cost and effort for our drivers to implement. However, if you believe this not to be the case and that making the required modifications to your car would be unacceptably onerous, please contact the Masters team to discuss your situation. Technical Specification MSD 6AL ignition control (part number MSD 6425 only) Note that no other device will be allowed. Fitting and Set-up Instructions · Any control of the advance curve must be RPM related only, and be executed by the sole means of the distributor. · No external control of advance system is permitted, and MSD ignition boxes that control advance, or allow advance mapping, are not permitted. · The MSD box must be mounted out of reach of the driver. · This system will be easily monitored by our scrutineers by an MSD controller which will allow the RPM limits set to be checked. |
