every rule is subject to interpretation by tech. The actual rule berbiage cane be argued for its wording, yes, but in the end, one person, the head of tech, decides how to interpret that rule.
The interpretation will be based on the intent behind the rule and , sometimes, other parameters around that intent.
Here, the intent stood as it was , for a Mechanical disablement to the engine, (now reworded as a physical change to the engine) but never was the club apprised of the intent to go to an all electronic mod, and so this was not approved.
As you know, I was involved in the rules processes for several years before you even joined the AFM.
I was, along with Dave Moss, the drive behind getting the triples into the AFM. I have a fairly reasonable understanding of the rules processes and how they work. Further, because of this, I was able to developed some good relationships with people in the fm, such as the current (and past) heads of tech.
I am not going to make shit up, nor am I going g to put words into their mouths.
So if you wish to challenge my statement, Marcus, please get something official from Tech. Your own interpretation is as meaningless as mine would be should either differ from that of tech.
