Josh,

Joe's comments to you are correct. Two things to keep in mind...

Go to your contest with a couple sets of wheels which have varying degrees of "aggressiveness" in their design. Trying to appease a finicky inspector in the pits is the pits.

Another thing to keep in mind is that the FIRST "criteria" will vary from contest to contest. I have had designs approved at one regional and disallowed at another regional a week later.

It's best to adopt the U.S. Coast Guard's motto in these matters: Semper Paratus

Always Ready (for those of you who did not study Latin).

Mike
