To bad racers and officials never could get together on a set of rules that the majority would agree upon and be willing to race. There is a set of rules that would work but it wouldn't ever happen with crate motors.

The only thing that could possibly fly would be rules based upon the concept formulated for the original Norwalk race in 2000 as well as the US Class Nationals. It's really to bad the original format wasn't extended for 2001 and beyond because if it were, most likely, it would still exist.

Once GM got involved and forced the crate motors down our throats it was all over but the shouting. Now that the class has been dead for 5 years and the mistakes have all been identified, I believe it would be far easier to put the eliminator back together. Especially since the LT1 and LS1 combinations are much more of a known quantity.

X's a thousand on that. Gary Penn and the boys ruined in back then. Bring it back the original way we had it set up.
