Automobile means a land vehicle propelled by its own means, running on at least four wheels not in a line, which must be normally in contact with the ground and of which at least two must effect the steering and at least two the propulsion. Ballast it is permitted to complete the weight of the Car by one or several ballasts provided that they are strong unitary blocks, fixed by means of tools and capable of being sealed by C 1 the CTM. Bodyshell means the main coachwork structure of an automobile which constitutes the fundamental structure of the automobile. Components such as doors, bonnet, bootlid and mudguards, which are readily demountable, are not deemed to be part of the body shell. Bodywork/Coachwork means: externally: all the entirely suspended part of the Car licked by the airstream; and internally: all other parts of the homologated bodyshell. Car means a V8 Supercar, which are those motor racing automobiles conforming to the C 1 eligibility requirements in these Rules. Cylinder Block means the crankcase and the cylinders. Cylinder Volume means the volume swept in a cylinder or cylinders by the upward or downward movement of the piston or pistons in such cylinder or cylinders. Cylinder volume will be expressed in cubic centimetres. For all calculations relating to the cylinder volume of engines, the symbol TT will be regarded as having a value of 3.1416. Exhaust Manifold means that part collecting together the exhaust gases from the cylinder C 1 head and extending to the first joint separating it from the rest of the exhaust system. Family of a Vehicle means different series models belonging to one and the same production series of the same manufacturer. At least the number of automobiles specified in Rule C 2.2 for the category of Car with identical external general lines of the bodywork must wheelbase dimension must be identical. All models must be available through the normal commercial channels of the manufacturer. C 1 The general external lines of the bodywork may vary in the following details:- shape and material of front and rear bumpers; front body panels fitted to automobiles, of which 3500 are produced in twelve consecutive months by the accredited manufacturers of Ford's and Holden's "Special Vehicles"; removable aerodynamic devices (spoilers, wings, sill mouldings); control and comfort equipment (sun roof, auxiliary lamps, door handles, exterior mirrors, etc); and decorative strips and mouldings. C 1 Ferrous Material means a material containing at least 80 % of pure iron by weight Friction Surface of the Brakes means surface swept by the pads on both sides of the disc, when the wheel achieves a complete revolution. Fuel Tank means any container holding fuel likely to flow by any means whatsoever towards the main tank or the engine. ID means inside diameter. Identical Cars are those belonging to the same production series and which have the same bodywork (outside and inside), same mechanical components and same bodyshell. C 1 Injection System means all parts collecting air and controlling fuel distribution, from the air intake to the ports of the cylinder head. @ AVESCO Feb. 2002 - Division “C" Page C 1 Intake Manifold meansall of the parts collecting air from the air intake and extending to the ports of the cylinder head. Main Structure means the fully sprung structure of the Car to which the suspension and/or spring loads are transmitted, extending longitudinally from the foremost front suspension on C 1 the chassis to the rearmost one and within the lateral protection structures.

Mechanical Components means all those components necessary for the propulsion, suspension, steering and braking as well as all accessories whether moving or not which are necessary for their normal working. Mechanically Identical a component will be considered as being "mechanically identical" if it C 1 performs exclusively the original function/s foreseen by the manufacturer and it permits the attachment of any secondary components in the original manner and without modification of those components. Minimum Weight means the real minimum weight of the empty Car (without persons or necessary) must be filled to the level laid down by the manufacturer, with the exception of the windscreen washer container and that of the brake cooling system if the Car is fitted with one; the exception is the fuel tank/s, which must be empty of fuel. C 1 OD means outside diameter. Racing Weight means the weight of the Car during any practice, qualifying or race, not including the driver or the driver's racing apparel or helmet. No fuel may be added after the conclusion of any practice, qualifying or race before the Car is weighed.

Seat means the two surfaces making up the seat cushion and seatback or backrest; C 1 Seatback and Backrest: Surface measured upwards from the bottom of a normally seated person's spine; and Seat Cushion: Surface measured from the bottom of the same person's spine towards the front. Sills means those components of the body shell, generally in a horizontal plane, which constitute the lower extent of the door openings. Spoiler means an attachment to one surface for the purpose of interrupting or "spoiling" the airflow across the surface and thus affecting the lift (or downforce) otherwise achieved. C 2.1 Wing means a wing/aerofoil functions on what is termed the “velocity effect" and essentially involves airflow over both upper and lower surfaces of the section. Essentially, the function of a wing/aerofoil is to produce lift (or downforce in the configurations used in motor sport applications). AVESCOFeb.2002-Division“C" Page C 2 C 2.
