MSNZ - Schedule K and T&C and maybe FIA HTP related questions info etc

[nzeder]

I know this much.

Weather I go down the K car path (if the mods already done before I purchased the car ie pedal box and strut to strut cage are ok under K) or the T&C path the car will be to the rules and will stay that way.

I have a better understanding of the rules having read and re-read them time and time again. FIA Appendix K is longer and is much harder to get your head around - and at first seems overwhelming. I think MSNZ Schedule K and T&C rules are much easier to understand and therefore built to.

So you summarize - this is for those who are looking to build a car or make a car conform to the rules as they are today.

FIA Appendix K is for (talking about production based cars not 1 offs or special stuff)

1. Standard Series Production Cars (saloons or Sport & GT) as homologated as such so little or non modifications from the show room floor - no movement.

2. Competition Cars (based on the cars that qualify as #1) as homologated in modified form of the period in question and group in question. Parts can be replicated if NLA but be 100% replicas/dimensional correct. ie 100% as it was.

FIA HTP cars therefore have a known config and can (does not mean they will be accepted by the event organizers) run at Historic & Classic International Meetings

The above is based on cars as homologated by the FIA in the day for an International Event - this does not cover locally build or raced cars - only those the competed in International Events - correction see my post lower down but this is from the FIA Appendix K rules.

Cars without an international competition history but which have a competition history in national championship events or other significant national events of equivalent status may also be accepted.

MSNZ Schedule K much like above however can be based on any National race series around the world - is this correct?
Again MSNZ K COD is for

1. Standard Series Production Cars same as above

2. Competition Cars (based on #1) just like the FIA Appendix K stuff but the cars can be national/local level + International level cars

A COD in K does not mean the car can run at FIA HTP Historic and Classic events internationally - if you want to play that game FIA HTP is for you.

MSNZ T&C

1. Must be based on a Series Production Car and retain the Standard Production body work - if your car does not fit this it does not fit T&C without correcting this or looking to a different Schedule maybe K as Competition Car of the day.
2. Depending on the group your car fits into - Group 1 & 2 - more engine mods, brake mods, suspesions mods, wheels free + 1" more than period is permitted - all these mods must be as period. Groups 3 & 4 - limited engine mods, only pad/fluid can change, suspension shocks free, springs free so limited mods, wheels free + 1" from standard rim.

So that is basics - you need to read the rules as this is just a summary. So have I missed anything?
