oppliger or similar gear kit.
Such a car on the above points system would only score 7 points and need an IVA test.
Sorry Warren but that example is a very bad one and would not get 7 points, it would easily achieve the required 8.
The shell is 5, rack is 2, rear axle is 1 (rear axle isn't a 6 deg beam its the diff as I read it), transmission is 1 (a gear kit if new would not loose any points). I have been through this process many times and am speaking from experience
