Default Fat arse stock car drivers

Ok, after tipping the scales at 255 this morning, and all the holiday food being brought by family to the shop to make sure Im eating.....Ive put on about 10 lbs.....at 210 I look like a skeleton, at 230 I look and feel "right" so I can loose a few it only takes about a week for me to loose, but I can never get under 210 at 6'1" and my frame, its just not healthy.

What was the reasoning, and Im sure there was someone on the 170 driver weight ? I know 2 people that weigh that 2 that arent women. My uncle and hes about 150 and like 5'2 and another uncle whos "short" (in MY family) at about 5'8 hes probably 170ish.

Right now the average weight of a male in the U.S. is 191 lbs......ok....why isnt it set somewhere closer to the average ? Does anyone know when the 170lb weight was enacted ? The average height has also soared in the last 15 years as well. and with height comes weight....then again there are people like me who are a)a bit overweight hence the fat arse , me.....and the fact Ive got a big frame. (and yes mouth)

So what are the options, most times its a non-issue as well have a driver for Nats and most regionals, but I would like to run regionals as well and "grade up" and maybe, just maybe run a national later in the year after we have a)won or b)decided its hopeless and go back to just screwing around.

Soooooo other than disguising a lead brick as an economy sized box of tampax or childrens diapers and hooked to a cable release so I can drop it on the way to the water box......(ne self respecting man would run out to grab either one of those) Well......a little curious...

Whats the petition process like in terms of being painful to just submit something I see as reasonable....its a CAR not a horse I shouldnt have to hire a "Jockey" sized person to drive it.
