IHRA · Hull and handling

Aftermarket sponsons, IHRA

IHRA answers this part for 29 of its classes. 0 of those answers permit the part outright and 29 permit it with stated conditions, leaving 0 that do not.

This page is IHRA only, and the bodies do not agree. The same part under IJSBA and UIM. Which one applies to you is decided by whoever sanctions the race you enter.


Where it stands, class by class

29 classes, grouped where the same rule gives the same answer rather than listed one by one, because an answer that holds for a class usually holds for every class that borrows its rules.
