The rules look good! We might want to stretch the wheelbase to 280mm max, as that's what the spec for the SP LM1 is.
I'm disappointed with the rubber tires, but I realize I'm probably the only one.
The 21.5/17.5 motor spec is a great idea. There may be other series that do this, but I've never seen it stated it in a national rules package.
I realize that the body list is only recommended, but it might not hurt to include the manufacturer's names so we don't end up the "who makes this?" weekly posts here.

and comes sooner rather then later. I hope the plan is not to run F103 rubber, I don't think they have announced a Speed Passion rubber tire yet right?

Rubber tire is listed as a 'future' requirement. Rob and I are well aware of the lack of a rubber tire at this time. If you notice all the wheel and tire specs are listed as TBA. SP is working on a rubber tire and we have made inquiries with other tire mfr's about a possible wheel tire combo for the class and the SP LM-1 in particular.
