ROAR might not have a choice about this if Trinity brings them to court. By not specifying a tolerance a judge would almost definitely force ROAR to defer to whatever the accepted manufacturing spec of 20awg wire is, which, depending on where the accepted standard is pulled from could be far looser than a racing spec should be.
The wire measurement in the photo posted by Steve Pond in the on-road thread on this subject is way bigger than any standard tolerance on 20 guage wire.
