There is NO need for a "sniffer" - IFMAR rules - as far as I can see - DO NOT have a rule against tire sauce. There were NO rules against sauce published for this event on the host track's website either as required. The rules of each IFMAR block do not apply even the host block - IFMAR is the sanctioning body for the event and must use IFMAR rules unless the conditions of the host track prevent that at which time it must be clearly published to all competitors within a reasonable amount of time to make it a fair event for all drivers. IFMAR needs to step up and stop this controversy before the event is ruined for ALL.
