PS:
All the forms and regulations you need are on the SVRA web site and can be down 
loaded from there.  
The referenced homologation forms are the normal FIA forms that define the 
basic specifications of the car. You donâ??t need to fill these out, but they 
make a handy source of information.  I sweated about getting these but Found 
them easily on line. Now that I have them, did not need them at the event.
Relax. Rick is good for his word. Youâ??ll enjoy it!
