Subject: SMRS Rules and Reg Update
I wanted to pass along the latest on Sprite Midget Race Series Rules and Re=
gulation revision 5/16/23, which you can see below or it maybe clearer in a=
bove attachment. This has been reviewed by the majority of Rules and Reg T=
eam. Yellow highlights latest changes
2023 VSCDA Sprite Midget Race Series Rules and Regulations
(Revision 5/16/23 rough draft)
I. Objective: Increase numbers for Racing Spridgets @ VSCDA Events by havin=
g:
A. More cars, which, will allow more wheel to wheel racing safely within Sp=
ridget Classes (with classes for various levels of preparation).
B. Continued tradition established by Thickos through camaraderie and group=
get together (cook out lunch Saturday and Sunday, British Pub Saturday eve=
ning when a 3 day race weekend along with technical and moral support throu=
gh group).
C. Series Points developed from Earlier Vintage Vee model. Including durabi=
lity (laps completed) from 1st Sprint Race, Fastest time from 1st Qualifica=
tion Race and Position for Spridget Race in a best 2 out of 4 race weekends=
identified in series.
D. To embrace vintage sports car racing philosophy and etiquette of VSCDA=
=92s Driver Policy with an emphasis on Safety.
E. Encourage street Austin Healeys & MGs as spectators by offering special =
parking near our Spridget Compound inviting them to join in the fun and enc=
ourage track touring session and assisting as crew.
Note: Revisions to this document will be highlighted in yellow so changes f=
rom previous documents can be seen more easily. Date of revision will be li=
sted at top of document. II. 2021
II. VSCDA Sprite Midget Point Races 2023:
A. Gingerman April 4-28 =96 (May 4&5 Driver School) (May 6&7 Race Weekend)
B. Blackhawk Classic June 16-18
C. Waterford Hills July 21-23 near Clarkston, MI
D. Grattan Grand Finale August 11-13
III. Racing Classes per VSCDA / SCCA (1972 Classifications Guidelines for P=
oints and Awards) Revamp with 1972 GCR / PCS Focus. Our intent is to have a=
nyone interested in racing a Vintage Spridget to join us. This is a double =
edge sword since an individual may have their own personal opinion of why t=
hey think they should or should not be in a certain class. Vintage Racing h=
as many clubs throughout the US and Canada with different criteria than our=
s. We have 3 levels within 3 classes that should allow anyone interested in=
racing to have a place to compete with other similar prepared racing Sprid=
gets. We recognize that everyone has an opinion of what is fair, based on t=
heir logic. We have tried to make that more defined by 1972 SCCA GCR Specif=
ications detailed, which is a VSCDA requirement. We would like to encourage=
placing the proper designation on your car & when you register.
IV. SMRS 1972 SCCA GCR / PCS Highlight of Requirements.
A. Background: VSCDA defines Regulations for Group 2 cars like our Sprites =
and Midgets from the VSCDA Website and updated 3/28/22 titled TECHNICAL REQ=
UIREMENTS FOR RACE CARS:
B. VSCDA - SCCA 1967 General Competition Rules Appendix A/Article. Producti=
on Category Sports Cars (w/PCS sheets) and after review, 1972 and prior car=
s homologated to similar regulations published by FIA and some other sancti=
oning bodies.
C. Objective: Now that we have a copy of SCCA=92s 1972 GCR /PCS rev 1/73 we=
actually have facts on what was required then vs what we heard or thought =
it might be. This document is available to anyone that would like an electr=
onic copy. The goal for this document is to highlight requirements as of 19=
72 GCR that would impact Square Body Sprites and Midgets on common areas of=
misunderstanding. For the sake of commonality and consensus within our gro=
up Mk1 Bug Eyes will also follow 1972 GCR requirements, which is consistent=
with VSCDA requirements.
D. 1972 SCCA GCR Highlights (the following highlights are for those wanting=
to run in ERA Correct 2E Bug Eye or 2D Square Body class). Comments are in=
( ) for clarification:
a. Interior:
i. Instrument panel (maybe altered if weight is not reduced=
see GCR)
ii. Interior trim =96 Removal of interior trim except door panels

t be metal, fiberglass etc.
iv. Spoilers are permissible, but minimal (see additional details 1972 GCR)
v. Fenders maybe altered only to provide for tire clearance, provided that =
the fender opening profile, viewed from the side of the automobile is not c=
hanged. vi. Safety fuel tanks must be place close to original position.
c. Tires, Wheels, Suspension:
i. Wheels maybe 1.5 inches wider than specified. Wheels may not exceed +/- =
2 inches track dimension. Center lock wheels and hubs is permitted within t=
his track restriction (wire wheel condition), (square bodied cars in the la=
ter years had 4.5 inch wide rims so up to 6 inch wide rim is possible)
d. Engine Compartment:
i. Battery =96 make or size of battery provided its voltage and location re=
mains unchanged
ii. Generator / Alternator =96 Standard maybe replaced with generator or al=
ternator of different make or size as long as location and drive are the sa=
me. iii. Velocity stack and or cold air box maybe used
iv. Transmission / Rear Axle =96 ratios as specified by SCCA (PCS) Straight=
Cut Close Ratio accepted with designated ratios (these ratios were BMC=92s=

VI. Race Series Points 2022 awarded from accumulation of 2 of the 4 designa=
ted races of Gingerman, Black Hawk Farms, Pittsburgh GP and Grattan.
A. 1st Sprint Race (Durability Points per class) represent 1/3 of total poi=
nts during race weekend. The First Sprint Race is usually held on Saturday =
(maximum 8 points). If a racer completes less than the most completed laps =
available by a similar class racer the results will be based on a percentag=
e of that 8 points rounded up. These points reward endurance. If the class=
session has less than 8 laps and a competitor completed all laps available=
they will be awarded 8 points.
B. 1st Qualification (Fastest Time per class): Points are awarded per C bel=
ow except based on fastest time.
C. Sprite Midget Exclusive Race (Finishing Position per class): Points are =
awarded based on finishing position. First (8 points), Second (7), Third (6=
), Fourth (5), Fifth (4), Sixth (3), Seventh (2) & all other finishers (1).
D. A racer can accumulate up to 16 points for Qualification and Sprint Race=
along with additional points for the Feature Race or Exclusive Sprite Midg=
et Race. The maximum points awarded per race weekend would be 24. The maxim=
um accumulated in the best 2 out of 4 series would be 48 points.
E. A driver will not receive points for a session in which they were involv=
ed in an on track incident resulting in a disciplinary action from the VSCD=
A Drivers Committee.
F. If a driver enters all 4 eligible race weekends he or she can throw out =
the worst weekends, which will allow any mechanical or other issues to be d=
iscounted. Final results will be tallied from the 2 weekends with the most =
accumulated points unless otherwise notified by racer.
G. An overall winner will be selected regardless of class based on a perfec=
t score of 48 points from 2 race weekends. If more than one racer has highe=
st points accumulated it will be considered an overall winner tie.
H. Awards will be presented at Grattan per the above Class Categories at th=
e end of the last Group 2 race.
I. These awards are in the spirit of Vintage Sports Car Philosophy recogniz=
ing fun and durability by completing the most laps per race weekend contrib=
uting 1/3 of total available.
V. Race Series Special Awards (these awards will be determined by drivers a=
nd crew and awarded with end of season awards):

ard). Criteria:

fluids on track or safety is a concern)
2. Objective: Listens to others and approaches other drivers that may have =
an issue with in an open and fair way. Can sit down with any driver and fee=
l comfortable that they did the right thing when on the track.
3. Observant: Looks forward to observe incidents and flag stations, inspect=
s car between sessions for safety to avoid causing accidents to others on t=
rack.
4. Respectful: Avoids Red Mist, which is identified as an emotional win at =
all costs attitude and maintains Vintage Spirit Philosophy.
VI. Abbreviations and clarifications:
GCR =3D SCCA General Competition Rules
PCS =3D SCCA Production Car Specifications
ERA Correct =3D 1972 SCCA GCR for Group 2 Production Sports Car Class (Bug =
Eye & Square Body). Up until this time we have only had 1275 engines for Sq=
uare Bodies. Other considerations will be made if 1098 or later 1500cc race=
cars join us.

odified beyond ERA correct including all Bug Eyes over 1098cc and or additi=
onal weight reductions of 10%)

ied beyond M1 with more recent SCCA raced cars and or additional weight red=
uction of 15%)
VII. Misc:
This document is a =93Work In Progress=94 and can be expected to change in =
the future based on understanding other Vintage Group requirements and our =
own consensus of what seems reasonable among our group. We are open to any =

GCR / PCS Focus. Our intent is to have anyone interested in racing a Vinta=

double edge sword since an individual may have their own personal opinion =
of why they think they should or should not be in a certain class. Vintage =
Racing has many clubs throughout the US and Canada with different criteria =
than ours. We have 3 levels within
3 classes that should allow anyone interested in racing to have a place to=
compete with other similar prepared racing Spridgets. We recognize that ev=
eryone has an opinion of what is fair, based on their logic. We have tried =
to make that more defined by 1972
SCCA GCR Specifications detailed, which is a VSCDA requirement. We would l=
ike to encourage placing the proper designation on your car & when you =
register.
