How old is this machine? If it was modified before around 1990 it should have a declaration certificate instead. Or the cert plate could be in the spare tyre well in the boot.

To me as someone who has spent years issuing warrants any club car with full harnesses and MANZ card competing-is in grey areas re regs. Especially when it comes to circuit changes to suspension and weight balancing

I would say yes, cert needed for the first three. But I don't know whether it being a circuit car there is some sort of all encompassing dispensation or authority card.

Its a definite yes from me. What happens on the racetrack is up to race official-on the road is a different story.

This whole compliance crap can never work properly, as there is never going to be a human who knows everything - even tho some might think they do.
I viewed an award winning car recently, and there were three issues that that I wouldn't agree to, or do to a car. One of those were changes to the structural integrity, in order to strengthen certain parts so another could be discarded. Vehicles are built to bend/crumple in certain places. Strengthening something in one direction, which I already know to be extremely strong - just to get rid of another intruding structural feature, is not my idea of being clever.
What we now have is a zone between the front and the wheels that will almost crumple as it should, then a section between the wheels and the A pillar that is now much stronger than it was designed, hence the dash will now be more likely to finish up around the front seated occupants earoles.
Obviously, the person who complied this car, has no idea at all.
