Push Cars / Support Vehicle

   
   

Apart from competition vehicles the only other vehicles permitted on the track are team push cars or support vehicles. These vehicles are used to haul equipment required to prepare the competition vehicle for a run or to start the competition vehicle by remote starter or by pushing it.
Teams don't have to have a push car or support vehicle other than when using the test track. All competition vehicles using the test track must be followed by a support vehicle.

Inspection and Requirements

Each team using a Push Car must present it for inspection at scruitineering with your race car and it needs all the required safety gear and the brakes and tyres will be inspected. It's also up to you to provide registration and insurance for your push car, as the lake is regarded as a public road. Therefore you will be liable for third party damages. Be assured the DLRA will not be held responsible for any claims.

Equipment

A push car must carry the following equipment

  • Fire Extinguisher 5lb min
  • UHF radio
  • Flashing orange light
  • Oil Spill Kit
  • First Aid Kit
