CACC Rule Change Proposals Summary – The Confederation of Autosport Car Clubs

Date Created	November 25, 2022
Name of Proponent	Gifford Robb
Short Description	Add minimum clothing standard for participants
Applicable Regulatory Document	Autoslalom
Type of Rule Change	Addition
Section to be Added or Changed	5.2.3 iv) & v)
Proposed Regulation	iv) Substantial clothing covering the torso and upper legs must be worn by all participants (drivers, workers on track, passengers, photographers on track). It is recommended that this clothing be of 100% cotton (no blends). v) Fire resistant clothing as listed in the current CACC GCR is highly recommended for drivers of Autoslalom Street Modified, Prepared, and Modified Category vehicles. This includes suits, gloves, socks, and shoes. Fire retardant clothing is highly recommended for all drivers.
Reason for Rule Change	The autoslalom regulations have not defined any minimum for participant clothing, so by default the GCRs set the standard. This would require drivers to wear full race suits. This proposal addresses this issue. I have struggled to define a "clothing minimum" so this is just my suggestion.
Status/Disposition	Approved
