That's a jig under your car?? I thought it was part of the car, and to think all this time, I was wondering how I was going to make it cut a light with all that iron. I was going to call James and have him build a 1200 CID engine to move that mild dud.

Hey Rock,

Just a thought...

I don't know how other div. run their super street program but as far as D3 goes... Super street gets 2 runs Friday, one Saturday morning, and then we wait until first round Sunday morning. Saturday ends up being a complete waste of a day for us, we just sit around. Why wouldn't they just give us our time runs on Saturday and then race Sunday?

Hey RL.....how are ya....

I'll bring that one up.....

it would be nice if they ran the alcohol cars and time runs on Saturday....and just had us on Sunday...

Can't the computer be changed between the pro's and sportsman. Shouldn't the computer be programmed for each classes tree setting. Doesn't sound too difficult to me.
A .370 tree could be sending some sg racers to sst- I did.
What is the setting for sst at a national? .470 or .500. If it's .470 like I think it is-does it make any sense?
Some sst cars may only be able to go .500 with no time in the box. It also may stop some foot brakers from trying out sst at a divisional or two.

Of course if someone wanted to just buy: a new motor, a box and brake, smaller front tires, shocks and struts, maybe even a new car----than the tree settings would make no difference.
I say the more restrictions the better. My odds of winning get better with every racer that decides not to go to divisionals or nationals.

Oh, thats right..........I'm not going either..........oh well

(sorry about the jasonesque post)

When you step up from bracket racing to pro tree racing, you usually have to buy some of the parts you listed. From that point, you need to TUNE your car for the desired results. Bet the majority of the cars out there, with existing parts, can hit the tree with testing different tuning techniques.

Pete, Thanks for wanting SST Championship for a new goal of mine. Don't think it will ever happen though. I'll have to think of some other goal.

Hi Lynn- Nice job @ the gators, I was pulling for ya! Thanks again for thr GREAT pilaf! Did you guys decide if you're gonna hit Rockingham?

A good for instance is look at the Las Vegas national event that is happening next weekend. Only 105 S/G racers entered, they are taking 150. In years past, if it wasn't full, it was pretty close. I just entered today (4/4/08) and look at the other classes, they are way down on car count. Why wouldn't they open it up to all classes in this instance?....All of the ideas we have also make their pockets bigger, they should atleast listen with open ears....You'd think!
