Plus, you're running novice, so you aren't protestable anyway. If we didn't want you and/or your car specifically to run, someone could probably use it as an excuse to bar you from entering, but I highly doubt anybody is going to take issue with it given that one of our region's primary goals is promoting our events to new members and increasing participation. However, it will probably have to be repaired before you can run at Club Trials. The Time Trial rules are basically the same as the GCR as far as tech inspection goes.

That's great news. Thanks Kevin.
