LIGHTS:
All UTV’s and SR1’s vehicles must have a minimum of two taillights, two brake lights, one rearward facing amber light,and one rearward facing blue light, the amber light and blue light is an attempt to identify the slower moving UTV and SR1 class of vehicle, so that faster class vehicles will be able to recognize that they are approaching a slower vehicle.
SNORE rules state that all safety lights must be working at all times, If a light fails to work it must be fixed at the next pit stop, or the vehicle cannot continue.
The stock headlights and switch are acceptable as the required headlights.
The amber lights, blue light, and taillights must be connected to the ignition switch (connecting straight to the battery switch, if vehicle is so equipped, is acceptable) and remain on during the entire race.
ENGINE LOCATION AND DISPLACEMENT:
All UTV vehicles must use stock engine cases and cylinder head. Maximum engine displacement is 800cc, larger displacement engines may be allowed if produced by the factory. A weight restriction may be required. This displacement requirement only applies to the UTV Pro Spec class. Engine displacement and location may be checked SNORE at any time. SNORE reserves the right to mark engine blocks prior to an event and confiscate engines after the race.
All vehicles must use the same fuel delivery system as stock and designed by factory. Electric fuel pumps are permitted.
FLUID COOLERS:
Oil coolers, transmission coolers and radiators located ahead of the driver and co-driver or in the passenger compartment must have a shroud that will prevent liquids from blowing back or leaking onto the driver and/or co-driver in the event of a rupture or leakage. All hoses running through the passenger compartment must be shielded. Steel braided hoses do not constitute a shield.
UTV FIREWALLS:
All vehicles must have an all-metal firewall separating the driver’s compartment from the danger of fire from fuel supplies. Rear mounted fuel cells require a minimum firewall which must be liquid tight and must extend at least 6 inches above the top of the fuel cell covering from side to side.
Any hole placed in the firewall for structure members, lines, etc. must be kept to a minimum. The hole should not have more than 0.0625-inch gap around the items passing through the firewall. Metallic tape must be used to seal the hole between the firewall and the item passing through the firewall.
Stock UTV engine covers meet the engine firewall requirement for the 1900 UTV class. However a fuel container firewall separator is still necessary.
FUEL FILLER SPLASH GUARD:
The intent of the splash guard is to keep fuel from being splashed on the driver and passenger when the UTV is being refueled. Splash guards must surround the fuel filling area in such a way that it provides protection from fuel spilling onto the driver and passenger when inserting and removing the fuel filler jug.
CHASSIS (FRAME), BODY AND ROOF:
All UTV vehicles must utilize the stock chassis (frame) and maintain stock appearance. The stock chassis (frame) is defined as the main lower rails running along the inner sides of the UTV and the front and rear tubes that connect them. Please refer to the drawing for a better description. Any modifications to the stock chassis (frame) must be pre-approved by a UTVRA tech inspector The stock chassis (frame) may be added to, for durability and strength, but must retain the stock width, length, and configuration. The stock UTV cage may not be used because no bolt on connections to chassis are allowed. All joints must be welded and attached to frame securely.
All body parts must remain on the vehicle (accidental damage excluded) during the entire length of race.
The roof must be covered with sheet metal or aluminum.
