No, the _rule_ is that it is without driver.

That's fine, but you'll lose your appeal.

You can already do that, but you have to meet the Solo II minimum
weight. "Vehicle minimum weight" means exactly that. There is no
equivalent to GCR Section 17.9 in the Solo II rulebook. The
definition of "vehicle" cannot reasonably be interpreted to
include the driver.

There are no minimum weights in SP.

Correct. "Vehicle minimum weight" cannot be interpreted to
include driver, since that is not stated.

>Everyone says without driver

More importantly, the rulebook doesn't say _with_ driver.
