RACING CATEGORIES
This class started
out as Club Car Racing Registrar of NSW INC and now
is known as Improved Production Racing Association,
defined as the "commercially available Touring cars"
and are allowed a reasonable level of modifications to allow
both the racer and designer room to create an exciting form
of racecar. In 2000, they have introduced the Late Model
Class, allowing even more modifications to the newer
cars.
This category
caters for the production based mass produced cars with
certain modifications. It also allows those interested in
racing to start with an early model car, do the necessary
modifications and you are off and running.
The cars must
retain the engine block from the same manufacturer as the
body and it must have the same number of cylinders (rotors)
as the original car and be of the same orientation eg: east/west.
Gearboxes and
differentials are free, however, they must be fitted without
having to cut the tunnel to fit them. Brakes are also free.
Forced induction
is allowed but must run CAMS approved restrictors. All the
technical regulations are available through CAMS or in the
CAMS manual for Improved Production Tourer (3J).
This class is
known and run Australia wide, so if you had the finances
you could run in the Queensland (QLD), Victoria (VIC) and
South-Australia (S.A.) championships. This year the class
has, once again been invitied to support the V8 Supercars
in Darwin, Northern Territory (N.T.), but again finances
hold us back.
At the end of
each year the National Titles are held in different
state: e.g. 1998 at Eastern Creek (NSW), 1999 at Phillip
Island (VIC) and 2000 at Malalla (S.A).
