Didn't I just say that I was pretty specific if enough canopied staggered boats came out we would discuss a class for them but right now it's open cockpit single and open cockpit side by side configurations

Most circle tracks only tech top three with fourth place on standby . Simple cyl PSI test after setting baseline for class tells enough ( I know cam lift / overlap ect will alter results , ) Tech guys usually ask for random part inspections ( may require top 3 pull intakes , or pull a valve cover to check lift ) Anyone illegal would have to go through tech at next race before being allowed to race . If your kicking everyones a$$ because your illegal , you'll get caught , if your just awesome , people will still hate you .

We need to remember why we were all drawn to Factory racing.
1) A class that we all felt equal on power.
2) Tec, Tec, Tec, that we all knew was the best at that time. NO EXCEPTIONS !!!!!!!!!
3) Unbelievable reliable power and drive life
4) Great value for guy's that stretched there budget to race.
5) Money was spent on set up only not dyno time.
6 We were all equal no matter how much money you had.
7) The best team of the day won
8) Manufactures got behind there product to show case it.
9) Money paid to teams at the race
10) Meeting life long friends with the same passions

This is what drew me to factory racing then and will draw a new generation in the future. The economy has finally taken a turn and in a couple years new money will be available IMO. The time is right for a new start IMO

Randy is exactly right and what a class it was.......so with a little cooperation, a little compromise, and a little unity.....maybe, just maybe we can have some fun and try to get this sport back on track.....Jesus you guy's got me sounding like f'ING politician.....

So apparently we're stuck again because this thread is dead and I have received no texts or emails......so tell me if I'm wasting my time here I have better things to do BUT if you truly want to race please raise your hand because there's A LOT MORE to build this going on behind the scene's......just saying!!!!
