Sorry ScimJim, but I also follow Colin's interpretation of the VHI rules.

There were a number of things discussed in the consultation, including increases in power/weight ratios, but these are now red herrings.

It is the final official wording that counts and that does not prevent a new body on an old chassis.

The fact the wording is vague should count in our favour.

E.g. "The general appearance" is still that of a car, as it hasn't been changed into a truck.

Cheers, Paul.
