IRAC COMPETITION RULES

1.0 GENERAL

Any IRAC competitor wishing to use a permanent car number for all IRAC events during the year should contact the IRAC points keeper at the first event of the year. The Points keeper will work with each entrant in an attempt to assign a number that is agreeable and if possible compatible with events other than those sanctioned by IRAC (such as SCCA).

All entrants participating; in the IRAC Series will be governed by the current IRAC Competition Rules (ICR's). Items not directly addressed by the ICR's will be governed by the current PCA Parade Competition Rules (PCR's). Where ICR's conflict with PCR'S, the ICR's will take priority.

Each year at the annual IRAC meeting proposed changes to the following Year's Parade Competition Rules will be reviewed for appropriateness and incorporation into that year's IRAC Competition Rules. Any rules adopted prior to becoming effective in the PCR's will be included in that year's revision to the IRAC Rules.

All IRAC Series events must be run and scored under the IRAC Competition Rules. In order for events such as "Maifest" and "Oktoberfest" to be considered IRAC events, they must be run and scored under the IRAC Competition Rules.

In order for a participant to qualify for IRAC points, he/she must be a member of the Porsche Club of America.

IRAC is not only a competitive series, but it is also a social series. It is expected that participants will enter an event with the thought of good sportsmanship and fairness to all competitors, and not use the rules to whatever unfair advantage they can possibly extract from them.

Any car that deviates from the current IRAC classification requirements will be re-classified and/or assigned Modification Points at the discretion of the individual event chairperson.

All rules proposals shall be made on or before the date of the annual IRAC meeting (tentatively scheduled for the third Saturday in January each year), except for emergency changes which may be implemented at the discretion of the IRAC Council.

1.1 During the day of an event, driving under the influence or consumption or use of alcoholic beverages, narcotics, marijuana, dangerous or illegal drugs by any Participant, crew member, official, worker, or spectator is expressly prohibited. Anyone in violation of this rule will not be allowed to Participate. This rule does not apply to the consumption of alcoholic beverages after a person's activities in

1

connection with the event are concluded and the person has left the event site, or after all competitive activities for the day have been completed.

1.1.1 Each automobile must pass a safety inspection as defined in the ICR's before being allowed to be driven in an event. Further, if at any time during an event the automobile is deemed by the Chief Technical Inspector, or that inspector's designated replacement to be in an unsafe condition, the automobile may not be used in further competition until repaired. All runs completed prior to being deemed unsafe will count.

1.2 DRIVER SAFETY1.2.1 SEAT BELT

The seat belt of all vehicles must be checked to see that it is fastened immediately prior to each run.

1.2.2 HELMETEach participant must wear an approved helmet. The helmet requirement will be a 1990 or newer SNELL rated helmet.

1.2.9 SAFETY DEVIATIONSA region may require more stringent requirements than those outlined in rules 1.2.1 - 1.2.8 due to the venue/location of their particular event. However, these deviations must be pre-published prior to the

2

event with sufficient lead time for participants to properly prepare for the event.

1.2.10 FINAL INSPECTIONThe grid worker at the course safety entrance shall make a final check of each car and driver, including a properly fastened seat belt, helmet, tires, running gear, etc. (or have others assist). The items listed under Sections 1.2.1 through 1.2.8 will be checked prior to a car's entrance onto the course.

1.2.11 RAIN TIRESAny race tire equipped car may elect to use street/rain tires due to weather conditions.

1.2.12 TECH INSPECTIONThe following are the MINIMUM items which must satisfactorily pass inspection:

A) REGISTRATION FORM - Must be complete in all respects.

B) SEAT BELTS - Each car must be equipped with adequate seat belts. Where installation is other than original factory design, the belt mounting must be anchored securely with large diameter washers on both sides of the mounting holes. Swivels must have eye bolts welded closed.

C) STEERING - Must not have excessive play.

D) CAMBER - All 356 cars should have negative camber on the rear suspension.

E) BRAKES - Must be tested for pedal "fade" while stationary.

F) TIRES - Tire tread depth is an important safety consideration in any IRAC event. No participant will be permitted to drive on street tires which are deemed to be unsafe by the event Safety Chairman at any time during an event. 1/32" tread depth in any two tire grooves will be considered as the minimum requirement for street tires.

G)WHEELS - Must be on tight per factory or wheel manufacturer's specifications. No missing lugs or nuts nor cracks will be allowed. All lug nuts must have a minimum thread engagement equal to one bolt diameter.

H) WHEEL COVERS - Snap-on type wheel covers and trim must be removed for the event.

N)REMOVABLE CAR TOPS - Car tops (Targa tops, Cabriolet and Convertible roofs) may be removed or lowered. Sunroofs may be either open or closed.

2.0 INDIVIDUAL EVENT SCORING

2.1 Ranking in class will be determined by the SUM of the BEST TWO runs made.

2.2 Besides being scored against all other cars in their class (novice and experienced alike), novice drivers also will be scored against other novice drivers. To mitigate the difference in cars, a weighing factor has been developed for each class based on the results from the previous year's Parade Autocross. Each novice will have his class time (sum of best two runs, as in 2.1 above) multiplied by the appropriate weighing factor for his class. Trophies for the Novice class will be awarded as to the schedule in Section 7.2. The weighing factors are shown in Attachment I.

2.3 At each event there will be an "Index of Performance" class (or "IOP"). All Porsche drivers will be included in this class. The sum of the BEST TWO runs for each driver will be multiplied by the appropriate weighting factor for his car class and gender; the weighing factor will be the same as that used for the Novice overall scoring described in Section 2.2 (see Attachment I for the weighing factors). The resulting times will be tabulated in ascending order and published with the normal class scoring. There will be NO trophies awarded for the IOP winners at the individual events.

4

3.0 OVERALL SERIES SCORING

3.1 A SIMPLE MAJORITY of IRAC events must be run in the same class to be eligible for overall awards (i.e. if there are five events in the series, at least three must be run). Other examples are 3 of 4, 4 of 7, 4 of 6, etc.

3.2 The best SIMPLE MAJORITY of total events will be counted for overall scoring.

3.3 Points may not be moved from class where earned.

3.4 Points earned will go to the region to which the participant was a member at the time of the event.

3.5 Points will be computed using the following formula:

where:

P = Points toward Overall scoringW = Class winner's total timeI = Individual's total time

3.7 An individual may compete in more than one class in an individual event, and earn points toward overall series scoring in more than one class, as long as the entrant meets the conditions set forth in section 5.4.4 AMULTICAR ENTRANT."

4.0 OVERALL AWARDS

4.1 There will be a designated trophy for the class champion.

4.2 There will be an overall Rotating Participation Trophy for the Region having the most members participating in the IRAC events. This award will be calculated as follows:

Number of region entrants total number of event entrants. The sum of these percentages for each event will be added and compared at the end of the season to determine which region had the most participation.

4.3 There will be an overall Rotating Championship Trophy for the Region that accumulates the most Event Class Wins. In order for class wins to be counted, a SIMPLE MAJORITY or more events must be run by the participant. If a tie occurs, second place class finishes will be used, etc.

P = 100 * W / I

5

4.4 There will be an overall Rotating Payne Engineering FTD Award for the winner of the most single FTD runs in the series made by persons participating in a SIMPLE MAJORITY or more events. Henry Payne III has declared himself ineligible for the award. In the event of a tie, the winner will be determined by :

a) Compare number of head to head FTDs between tied contenders.

b) Largest total margin of victory over FTD contender, based on formula in Overall Series Scoring, item 3.5, where P = Points toward FTD tie breaker & W = official single FTD.

c) Most events entered during the series.

4.5 There will also be an overall Rotating Women's FTD Award using the same determining factors as the Payne Award.

4.7 Each participating Region or sponsor of an IRAC event will contribute $300.00 to the IRAC Treasury each year. The IRAC Treasurer will bill each Region for these funds on or about March 1st of each year, payable by March 31st. In addition, each Region will contribute $5.00 per entrant at that Region's respective event to the IRAC Treasury. The IRAC Treasurer will bill each Region for these funds as soon as possible after each Region's event, payable upon receipt. The combined funds are intended to cover IRAC expenses for the IRAC Newsletter and for IRAC awards. All checks should be made payable to IRAC and should be mailed to the IRAC Treasurer.

4.8 A "Novice of the Year" award will be presented to the top novice.

4.9 There will be "Index of Performance" (IOP) trophies awarded to the top three (3) placing drivers in the IOP class. Eligibility for these awards is described in Section 9.5.

8

6.0 PROTESTS

6.1 The right to protest shall rest with any entrant taking part in an event. Entrant may protest any decision, act, or omission of the organizers, an official entrant, or other person connected with an event, which is believed to be in violation of the IRAC Competition Rules.

6.2 Every protest shall be made in writing, specifying which of the ICR's is believed to have been violated, and must be signed by the entrant making the protest.

CARS IN CLASS AWARDS

1-2 1 3-4 2 5-6 3 7-8 4 9-up 5

8.0 CLASSIFICATION OF AUTOMOBILES

The Parade Competition Rules for the current year will be used for all car classifications.

9.0 CLASSES

9.1 NO minimum number of entries is required to form a class.

9.2 Class and Progression Charts: Drivers are allowed to compete in a higher class than their proper class, as long as the higher class is consistent with the progression sequence for car modifications in the PCR=s. (See PCR's Appendix II)

9.3 Specifications: See PCR's Appendix II for standard gear ratios and vehicle track.

9.4 Novice Class: There will be a novice class for anyone qualifying and choosing to participate in such. To be included in the novice class, the entrant must notify the registrar prior to the first run. A "Novice" is defined as "an entrant who has competed in four or less autocross events prior to declaring novice status at an IRAC event".

Novice trophies will be presented per the schedule in Section 7.2 at each event. Novice entrants will make timed runs with cars in which the entrant's car would normally be classified and is eligible for awards in both classes. If the novice participant goes on to compete in the required number of events needed for a regular IRAC competitor to qualify for year-end awards, he/she will qualify for the "Novice of the Year" award.

10

If a novice driver receives a "Did Not Finish" due to an off-course reason, that novice will be granted a single rerun in that run session with an instructor in the car. This rerun is expressly for the purpose of obtaining a timed run, and therefore should be done at a reduced speed to allow the instructor to guide the student around the course. Off-course deviation during subsequent runs will still allow a single rerun per run group with an instructor in the car. Instructor is mandatory for a rerun.

For novice scoring and class weighing, please refer to Rule 2.2.

9.5 Index of Performance Class: At each event there will be an Index of Performance Class (IOP) consisting of all Porsche drivers who compete a minimum of two timed runs.

All workers who are scheduled to work in runs other than the last run will run twice during the run that immediately follows the run worked. Workers in the last run will take two runs in the first run. Worker schedule will be defined by the event chairman prior to the commencement of runs and should be posted.

11.0 MISSED RUNS DUE TO MECHANICAL FAILURES

11.1 A participant who misses a run due to mechanical failure will be permitted to make up that run provided he/she waits until his/her class comes up during the following run, where two runs will be permitted. On the second run, they must line up so that there is a minimum of 5 cars between theirs and the starting gate to allow the tires to cool.

11.2 A participant who misses two consecutive runs due to mechanical failure will only be permitted to make up one run, provided he/she follows the guidelines established in section 8.1.

ATTACHMENT IV - IRAC EVENT GUIDELINES

The IRAC Committee encourages all participating Regions to adopt the following recommendations for IRAC events to provide continuity:

. Keep prices in line with the quality of the course and expenses.

2. Each Region should provide its own workers. If not provided, publicity must carry notice that working will be mandatory.

3. Confirmation of registration will be on request only by stamped addressed envelope or postcard (no registered or certified mail). The standard registration form format should be used to the maximum extent possible.

4. Registration deadline should not exceed 1 week prior to the event.

5. Camping areas near event site should be publicized.

6. Advise all entrants to talk with their Regional IRAC Representative concerning correct classification of their cars BEFORE the event. IRAC NEWS as well as all Regional newsletters should carry the notice that it is the individual participant's responsibility to have his car properly classified. An incorrectly classified car may cause the entrant to forfeit points earned in incorrect class.

. Cars should be run by class particularly with inclement weather. Reruns should be made during that particular car's class runs so that weather conditions are the same as during the original run.

8. TIMING - It is suggested that a back-up timer be on hand. A quick call to a sister region could provide the equipment.

Timed runs SHOULD BE posted before driver grids for the following run.

A list of classes and entrants in each class SHOULD BE posted BEFORE the second run.

. Each region SHALL USE the IRAC approved scoring sheets in triplicate (one for newsletter editor, one for points keeper, and one for host region) as provided each IRAC Representative. Bruce Pickering will supply forms to each Region prior to their event.

10. SAFETY - Each IRAC Representative is responsible for filing a PCA Observers report, a copy of which is to be sent to the IRAC Chairperson and the individual event chairman.

17

Each region should use the Technical Inspection form as used at the PCA Parade as a guideline for event Tech Forms.

11. It was the feeling of the committee that each Region should be encouraged to hold an organized Saturday night function.

12. A worker or workers should be assigned to advise a driver where and why he DNF'd. The choice of workers should be left to the Event Chairperson to choose, but experienced autocrossers are highly recommended.

13. At the drivers meeting, the IRAC Representatives and Officers should be introduced. If a driver has problems with the event or help in general, they should be encouraged to seek out one of these personnel.

14. All dash plaques should be a 2" by 3" format and ordered through Rallye Productions for consistency.

. Event chairperson should endeavor to have the first car off by 10:00.

16. Ample time for pre-publicity is a must; it is recommended that event descriptions be sent to both the participating region's Newsletter Editors as well as the IRAC representatives. A list of the IRAC Region Newsletter editors with their deadlines is provided in Attachment IV. Keep in mind that a 2-month lead before an event is considered an absolute MINIMUM.

17. Event chairperson shall be responsible for having a current copy of IRAC Competition Rules and PCA Parade Completion Rules (PCRs) at their event.
