2008 SCORE RULE UPDATES - Apr 15, 2008
IMPORTANT IRC INFORMATION
REAL-TIME TRACKING DEVICES NOW MANDATORY FOR ALL CLASSES
Starting with the 22nd Annual Tecate SCORE San Felipe 250, IRC equipment became mandatory for all classes at all SCORE events. Used primarily to monitor race progress while tracking the route and speed of each vehicle in the race, IRC also provides a website (www.racetheworld.net) where teams and the general public will be able to view the location of vehicles. Four-Wheel vehicles will be required to have the IriTrack unit, while Motorcycles and ATVs will utilize the smaller E-Track unit.
Order forms are available on the SCORE website. www.score-international.com
IRC technical personnel are available to answer questions at (714)544-0668.

foundation, SA2000, SA2005, M2000 or M2005 with a legible Snell sticker attached, FIA Standard

type, allergies and any other medical information. Straps must have “D” rings. No snaps.
CR50 – IDENTIFICATION MARKINGS
All vehicles in competition must be identified with the correct vehicle number and/or letter
(Identification Markings) issued by SCORE. All vehicles must display the identification markings in
the correct locations as prescribed under the correct heading for your vehicle. In addition, all
vehicles must leave the appropriate space for SCORE decals and sponsorship decals as SCORE
prescribes.
All numbers must be black on a white background or white on a black background
(Glass is considered colorless unless it is painted black or white). Background or number
plates shall be clearly distinguishable from the color of the vehicle. Background or number
plates shall be either vinyl or paint.
Any combination of numbers that in the opinion of SCORE, are difficult to read, or in an
undesirable location or are inadequately attached will be rejected. The violation must be corrected
before the vehicle will be allowed to compete.
SCORE assumes no responsibility for scoring vehicles that have unrecognizable
identification numbers. It is the driver’s/rider’s responsibility to keep numbers recognizable
at all times during the event.
