To be eligible to protest you must have participated in 1 point race in the current season and finished in the top three on the night of the protest. If the driver is protested and refuses to tear down, he loses all points, trophies, and money for that event, plus he will lose 10 points from previous weeks points standings. Protest deadlines end 10 minutes from the finish of the feature race. The driver must file the protest with tech man. The tech man reserves the right to check any car qualification items at any time during the season. Visual protest will be at anytime before during or after race. TRACKS DECISION IS FINAL !!!
