Video Standards for HST/Runoffs
#30990 from Karen Crider · Member feedback requested · Minutes (2021-09 Fastrack)
As our Club gets more experience with using forward facing cameras it has become apparent that there are numerous media
formats being used by the cameras to record and retain the video media. In order to make it easier to access, view and store we
are proposing that the following language be added to GCR Section 9.3.11.: The video format must be a digital file such that it
can be viewed in an MS Windows compatible viewer. The current rule is shown below for reference.
9.3.11. CAMERA & CAMERA MOUNTS (effective 01 March 2021)
A. All cars competing at Super Tour events and the SCCA Runoffs must have a forward-facing camera that is recording at all
times while on track and provides a clear horizontal field of view of the cars and track ahead. The cameras may be mounted
either inside the car, or on the body. If video is needed as part of an investigation of an incident, a competitor’s video of the full

unedited session may be requested by race officials regardless of whether or not said competitor was involved in the incident.
Failure to provide such video may result in penalties. Forward-facing cameras are recommended at all other SCCA-sanctioned
events.
