The SCCA Track Events (HPDE, Track Night in America events) rulebook states:

5.2. Clothing
A. Clothing must be worn. It is recommended that clothing be made of natural fibers.
B. Shoes covering the entire foot must be worn.
There have been some interesting observances of that technical regulation. My region has added supplemental regs to make that a little more restrictive.

......when you can't afford data so you use what God gave you for an accelerometer and g-force indicator.

Not recommended for use at LRP or WGI in the early spring or late fall as it may provide faulty readings.

Yes VR: very wrong.
That would be seen could not be unseen and women and children would run in terror

That's it. I can't take it anymore.

The visuals are just too disturbing, and now I'm never gonna be able to get back into my track cars without taking a shower as soon as I get out.....

.

At my club track there was a potential customer who wanted to rent the track for half a day so he could drive his F car around in the nude.

No, I'm not kidding. Of course the answer was no. BTW, his name was not Bruce.

How about Coach Dave driving naked WITH hookers and blow onboard? I am thinking the back straight at VIR might give him the 55 seconds that he needs...... (sorry Dave, it was there)....
