    for seemingly minor reasons

    It’s the anti-porpoising regulation. It’s there so drivers don’t get health issues in a 100 minute race from bumping a thousand times.

        The “clarification” is wrong. It has nothing to do with porpoising. Unless this porpoising was somehow present on non-ground effect cars in the mid 90’s when the plank was introduced.

      This is entirely wrong. The plank has been in place since the mid 90’s as a ride height check. This porpoising shit hasn’t existed for more than a couple of years.
