Battery Change

#35854 from Andrew Fox · Rule change · TB 24-04 (2024-04 Fastrack)

In GCR, Section 9.1.3.D.1.h., change as follows:
"Any ignition system which utilizes the original distributor for spark timing and distribution is permitted. Internal distributor
components and distributor cap may be substituted. Crankfire ignition systems are prohibited unless fitted as original
equipment. Any spark plugs and ignition wires may be used. Ignition timing is unrestricted. Batteries may be replaced with those
of alternate manufacture provided they are of similar amp-hour capacity and weight and are fitted in the standard location.
Additional battery hold-down devices may be used, and are strongly recommended. Cars originally equipped with two (2) 6-volt
batteries may replace them with one (1) 12-volt battery installed in either of the original battery locations."
