Rulebook clarification regarding Part B: Article 2 (Required Engine)

Delta Shootout is an open engine competition. Competing teams can use any commercially available 4 stroke gasoline engine with a maximum displacement volume of 400 c.c. & governed at 5000 rpm. 2 stroke & Diesel engines are NOT permitted for "Delta Shootout 2014".

Pat Clarke, Steve Fox & Claude Rouelle shall be present at the " Delta Shootout 2014"

They will be inspecting the vehicles, interacting with the students regarding their design and fabrication of their prototype, offering design critics. For the first time in India a student engineering design competition will have International experts. We expect the students to be fully compliant to the rules and present their vehicles in a standard which demonstrates good engineering practice, professional attitude and sound engineering knowledge.

'Delta Shootout 2014" is NOT a motorsports event

It urges aLL registered teams to refrain from using the words "motorsports/racing" when talking about this event in their press release, social media updates, and communication with sponsors/college authorities.

The objective of 'Delta Shootout 2014" is to help students sharpen their engineering knowledge and fabrication skills. This is not a platform for high school students to "build" a car in a shed over the weekend. The objective is to DESIGN a car as a team within the rules of the competition. Exactly what is expected of the participants when they join their professional career within a few years.
