3.31.10.2 Non Control Fuel & Illegal Fuel
Fuel samples may be taken by any person or organisation authorised by the
organisers or the Permitting Body at any time or place during the meeting.
They may authorise Tests by a fuel analyst on their behalf to ensure that fuel
complies with fuel regulations at events. The findings regarding compliance
with control fuel, when specified, will be final.
However, if they find that the fuel is illegal the competitor may challenge thse
findings in which case the following procedure will be adopted:
a) Two samples will be taken and collected in purpose made containers,
sealed and identified.
b) One sample will be taken by a fuel analyst for a full analysis. The second
sample will be retained by the competitor or his representative.
c) If a competitor agrees that the second sample may not be taken the
competitor gives up all right of appeal.
d) If there is not sufficient fuel (2 litres - 1 litre per sample) for two samples
to be taken he will be in contravention of fuel regulations and penalties
will be imposed in accordance with Judicial Procedure.
However, if there is sufficient fuel for only one sample (1 litre) the
competitor may agree that the second sample may not be taken in which
case the competitor gives up all right of appeal.
e) If requested for two-stroke engines the competitor must supply a sample
of the oil being used and the ratio of the mix.
The authorised person or organisation will be responsible for the taking of all
records regarding the test and these will be kept by the secretariat of the
permitting body who will inform all parties involved of the results, as soon as
they are available, in writing.
