MR2 Championship

Another Patrick question/query!

I'm hearing whispers that there's been a change in the 2009 blue book.
2009 MSA regs require post 2000 production based race cars to run with a cat.

That means all mk3's (although a few will sneak in if registered in 1999) will have to retain their heavy ol' catalytic converter.
I can only imagine this to be a move by the MSA to show that Motor Sport can be made more 'green'

Hi Rowland,

Our Championship regulations require all mk3 MR2s to have catalytic converters fitted regardless of year, but the pre-cats may be removed from the exhaust manifold. Other classes are not affected.

IIRC the Blue Book says that a catalytic converter must be fitted. it doesn't say where...
