You cannot outlaw money in racing.

Too many rules stifles innovation, which takes the reward for work out of the class and brings money in.

More rules = more money.

Rules written to save racers money often, maybe even usually, do not.

Racers are not always the best people to make rules.

Usually, track owners and promoters do as bad as racers.

All three mentioned above have a personal agenda, and even the best of them are biased toward that agenda.



What is needed as much as anything is good promotion by good honest promoters.


The truth is, if you really want good rules, pay wesley roberson, dave ley, travis miller, and a couple of good engine builders to work on the rules for you. The resulting rules should end up cost effective and enforceable.

If you want to try to start the class, start as a part of other non nhra controlled events, or better yet, series.

Good luck to anyone trying to make a class like "econo" modified happen. It would be fun, and interesting.
