Tear downs for all records and at least one random tear down for the rest.
I thought they always tear down when setting a record

They do. I just don't see many people setting records at points meets. My thought was to give racers a reason to set a record. My whole thought process revolves around making class racing relevant again. I don't think that it would help our cause to have a bunch of tear downs. Just enough to keep things honest. I don't see the need to tear down the same racer repeatedly either.

They DO tear you down when you set a National Record.

It just seems like it is not worth the trouble anymore!

It has been 10 years since we set any = Our cars have not

slowed down.

However, my boys are not interested at all in them!

It was a bigger deal when I was their age.

Setting the record still matters to some. I have a few, still not done.

I looked up the Stock/Superstock Records = Over 1/2 or at Minimum for
a long time on many. A lot of the rest were from 2017.
I thought when we set them ( not since 2010 or 2012 ) they only
lasted two years..
