EQUIPMENT REQUIREMENTS

General Requirements: All Automobile Divisions

1. Vehicles in Automobile Divisions must be 4-wheeled cars, SUVs or pickup trucks with a full-fendered body; no open wheel vehicles allowed. Vehicles must use a single internal-combustion engine and be wheel-driven.
    
2. Vehicles must have 4 wheel hydraulic brakes. 4 wheel discs are greatly preferred and mandatory in some Divisions.
    
3. All cars must have a functional suspension and shock absorber for each wheel. No part of the suspension or chassis is permitted to hang below the bottom of the wheel rim.
    
4. A minimum track width of 48 inches front and rear is required, measured between tire centerlines; and the ratio of wheelbase length to minimum track width must not be less than 1.2:1 or more than 2.4:1. (note: This probably won’t affect you. It means no short wide cars or long skinny cars.)
    
5. These and similar vehicles are generally prohibited: Rail-type dragsters; karts; ATVs; streamliners; lakesters; off road vehicles; jet cars; 3-wheeled vehicles; dual rear wheel pickups; vehicles over 5 tons; open wheel cars; hot rods with narrow or motorcycle-type front tires.
    
6. No Passengers Allowed.
    
7. Convertibles must run with the top up. All cars must run with the windows up. If no side window is present, a window net or arm restraints must be used.
    
8. No loose items are permitted in the passenger compartment of the race vehicle.
    
9. If the race vehicle has airbags, nothing may be mounted or positioned in front of the air bags unless they have been disabled. Any disabled airbag system requires an accompanying NHTSA Form 603.

Any exception to these rules requires special permission. Plead your case to MKM well in advance of the event.
