Traction Control
Having thoroughly enjoyed my first taste of the British Hillclimb Championship at Prescott one thing puzzled me; The big single seaters are using traction control. Why is it permitted? Is it safety?

It's a very open formula, hillclimb is very open to technology of all kinds. I imagine policing it would be difficult as well.
If I'm correctly informed, a certain F1 team's TC software was tested on a hillclimb car long before it was used in F1. |
