SIMS/ULMA Limited Modified Rules



UMP Limited Modified Rules

IF IT DOESN'T SAY YOU CAN, THEN THAT MEANS YOU CAN'T!!!

These rules have been interpreted to be track and racer friendly.

At any time, any UMP registered driver may protest any visible or non-visible part on another car for a fee of $100 per part.

If the car being protested is found legal then said car shall receive $50 with $25 going to the track and $25 going to UMP per part.

If said car is found illegal, the protester will receive $50 with $25 going to the track and $25 going to UMP per part.

It is at the tracks' discretion on what tech procedure to use.

We hope that the simplification and clarifications of these rules make for a great future for all.
