I see the point that you don't want nos and turbo cars to run but even if szabo came to Dorchester there is not one doubt in my mind that a nos car could outrun him. One this is the purse will be based on car count and will allowing all to run make that many not come to make the car count different than if it was nos only? I doubt it.

Try for the 2 classes, and obviously base the payout of 5k on 24 cars (or whatever they decide) and get started

Or maybe they would bc sometimes the fastest don't always win. Any time I had to run in the fast ford race I don't think anyone bitched about Trent being in it with his big block on a few kits to our lower budget small blocks, bc we came to race win or lose and had a good time. You will never be able to make the rules fair enough to make it a close field at a small run track like this. But I guess Wes will try

That's the difference between a race that pays $1500 and a race with a $10,000 payout.

And you are right, if BBF showed up he would outrun me. But I would have no excuse, we have the same combo.

I didn't say make it NOS only. I said have two classes-

One for the little people- 28's or 275's nitrous only.

One for the big people- any combo, 29's or 315's.

That's about as simple as it gets. If a nitrous car like Mark King wants to race but doesn't want 28's, no problem- he has a place to race too.

The more I think about it, Badbob is probably the only car I can think of that would fall in no mans land and that's only because his cars ET isn't what others with the same combo can run.

another way to help get the car count up is split the money up to everyone entered. give everyone $50 and the rest can go to the winner.

So your classes allow for big blocks? That's fair for the small blocks to run the big blocks with no other rules?

28 / 275. Any power adders

Lol, so now no big blocks either?

Yes, that's exactly what I am saying. Let the smallblock and bigblock nitrous cars duke it out on 28/275 and let everyone else duke it out on 29/315. Ya'll are the ones that keep saying let the tire be the limiting factor! If you have a nitrous car that doesn't want to run 28's then they can still race in the 29 tire class. Everyone can race with those rules and it will halfass split the field where everyone has a decent chance. Except you maybe.

You do realize that I have a smallblock, with a cast intake, one carb, one system on a 28" tire, correct? It doesn't get any more "disadvantaged" than that in a no rules race....

Ok, works for me.

but if they offer $10,000 pot I wouldn't bother showing up if you can't run in the 4's.

[bones]

How much of that 10000 are you puttin in free testing to run with the best

I don't think they will put up $10,000 for a field of 5.50 cars.

[bones]

May not but maybe 5000

Ok, if you say so. I don't think they are looking for the local cars when they say they want to have a 2 day $10,000 shootout. Maybe I'm wrong. I would think they are trying to draw in some big dogs which in turn draws the crowd.

[bones]

Oh yeah shawn boy moody. I got some midol for you. FOR YOUR HEAD

[bones]

Well wes ask them if they dont care about the locals opinion

A lot of what has been typed took a lot of rereading to understand.

Who said anything about the locals opinion? Good lord dude, do you read or just start typing?

The best 2 classes to have 28,stock suspension, nos only, no wheelies and for another class 29 any power adder,any suspension,no wheelies! They will have plenty of cars in the 2 classes. Spectators will show up for that race. That's what counts. That what the track needs!
