Chevystang, we are going to miss this race. I sent the intake off to have a custom fogger installed. We won't get it back untill probably Friday the 25th. I debated on what to do because I really wanted to make that race and see if we could back up another win. But reality set in and I came to the conclusion I had my single stage Speedtech plate maxxed out and probably couldn't hang with the Limited Street cars that are going to show up for this next one. I really think they need to do away with the 29.5x10.5W tire rule and make it a true 29.5x10.5 tire max 10.9 inches wide like all the other true 10.5 classes here in Texas that have been successful. Most mini-tubbed cars can't fit a W tire under their car. If I could fit them I would, but I can't because they are wider than my wheel wells will hold. I think Sonner Motorplex is headed down the right road, but there does need to be some limits put in place to keep cars entering the class. They are going to find out that the 5.90 to 5.40 cars will quit showing up without some limiting facters. If they adopt the format already set in place by TTT5 Extreme Street and Houstons Ultimate Street, then they will have a class that has better parity and more side by side racing and will keep the cars coming for a long time. Just my 2 cents. We entered that last race knowing we would probaly be out gunned and there was only one other car there that could out run us. Racing is racing, but it was just our weekend that we won against a car that had us covered by 3 tenths. In another words, we got lucky plain and simple. How many times can a man keep getting lucky? Food for thought and please pass this along to the powers at be. Unc |
