Boats on a port tack shall keep clear of boats on starboard tack (Rule 10). When boats are on the same tack and overlapped, the boat to windward (the boat closest to the wind) shall keep clear of a leeward boat (Rule 11). When boats are on the same tack and not overlapped, the boat that is astern shall keep clear of the boat ahead. (Rule 12).

The differing templates frequently caused NASCAR to adjust the templates to ensure that all makes of cars were as aerodynamically equal as possible (called "parity"). [3] There were at least 30 templates used. All Car of Tomorrow models utilize the same templates, since the CoT is designed to not resemble a specific street car. [4] All makes of ...
