INTENT AND SPIRIT OF THE CLASS


This class is designed to be an affordable, fun, class of competition. It can be a starting point for a young driver or a level of competition for older drivers who no longer wish to compete in hi-level classes.


The class rules for this class are froze for four years. The next allowable rule changes will be proposed in spring of 2024 to be adopted in the 2025 season. This assures the ability to build a sled that has longevity and does not require costly annual upgrades. This is a factory stock produced snowmobile. The way it was produced is the way it must be ran, the only exceptions are the specific rules noted in the above text indicated by this symbol (**). [15 items]


If it is not listed, it does not mean you can alter it.


If you desire a class with more liberal rules, or the ability to be creative in construction, please participate in any of the other USSA oval classes available.


The only revisions to this class for the next four years will be safety related changes, and only if required by recorded incidents or failures.


F500 and sportsman 500 follow Isr rules please refer to their website for build specifications and clarification. F340 follows F500 rules using a 2002 or older indy 340, 340 sport or 340 lite.
