This year 2014 ! we enforced the battery rule because the south west regionls is a Brca sanctioned event?
So in the brca handbook we have first
15.1 All BRCA Sanctioned events will be run to BRCA rules.
Then we have this!25.2 The description, specification and types of rechargeable batteries approved for use in Off-Road Sanctioned events can be found in the section entitled ‘BRCA Electric Board’ (EB).
25.3 Cells and batteries can only be used if they are included on the BRCA (EB) homologation list at the time of the event.
25.4 Entrants must be prepared to open packs on demand of the race Scrutineer to demonstrate the eligibility of the rechargeable batteries.
25.5 All competitors at BRCA Off-Road sanctioned events must comply with BRCA Electric Board rules, in particular rules 3.6 to 3.10 inclusive.
So we did our region to the rules as specified ! as also explained in this thread about the 4th post down
