Im in the same boat, this will be my first Andra event

Im doing an oil change for this tomorrow morning. Would be handy enough to put a clamp on the filter I guess

When I raced this at AIR it was a requirement back in 07.

You can see the spring along the dipstick tube.
Good safety feature even if not needed these days.

It really depends on the scrutineer, some are very strict with the rule book and some let some things slide.

Usually they will just ask you to have one fitted before your next event. That goes for most non safety items that you dont comply with.
