autox tint rules

So that rule doesn't exist in the national version? My apologies if not, I didn't know I was quoting from regional. Zachary, definitely check the rules for the autocross you intend to race in. Loren is right, SCCA is just one organization of many.

However, regarding the rule I did quote, if the doors automatically lock, you know you're not going to unlock them while driving, so in the event of an emergency, they would be locked UNTIL you unlocked them. I believe that violates the rule I quoted.

And, this whole thing is off topic with regards to tinting. My apologies to the OP, but I still think it's interesting.

No, it does not exist in the Natl rules. And even as a Regional Sup Reg it does not say it is required - having the door unlocked meets the rule, end of debate imo.

In many cars hitting unlock after starting the cars overrides the auto lock system. In some cars, like Fords, it can be completely disabled.

I really doubt that at the 2009 Solo natls the 50+ car SS class would have enjoyed its rain soaked run group with windows down.
