your off on the wrong foot already. Having a vote or getting input from anyone will just make you load your AR15 clips

Josh, It was a lot of fun when it first started. Not that many cars were in it, then it got popular and everybody wanted in. Your not gonna get everybody to agree on the rules, especially when it comes to street car / race car definition, tags, insured, and everything else. It got really crazy to organize, Ray did a great job in the early days, but it just got to damn difficult to keep up with and put up with the whining that took place. Maybe you could do a 5, 6, 7, and 8 second classes where everybody could get in where they fit in. Who knows, the list can be endless for the direction we could go. I had fun, made it to the number 3 spot, had my shot at number 1 and lost to Robert when I put my car on the bumper. If it comes back, I may participate if it works out.

alright i would say do it at Dorchester on Sundays simply because Dorchester Is a close track for most on this board, and Sunday seems to be a good free day for most ppl that work and stuff

Street Tire Shootout > *

I think the best way to weed out race cars in thr street car class is drive 30-40 miles or whatever from one location to the track.

Gotta have AC. That will fix it all, any tire any engine. It could be a go cart with tubs and steam roller tires If it has AC its a street car.

90% of your race cars are done with that 1 rule.

^^^^this, and run what you brung...no driving anywhere, no who has A/C and who doesn't.....seems like alot of guys always have an excuse. My car can't hang with most of the race cars here, but I still enter the shootouts because it's FUN and you never know what can happen.....no excuses from me.

Exactly that was my point of bringing this up cause it fun to go out and race ppl at the track instead of going there and just making single passes by yourself. It didn't matter how the rules are set somebody is going to cry about it either way

Don't need any of that, just AC and done. That alone solves the street car debate.

I don't care if its a top fuel dragster if it has ac its a street car.

No matter how you do it or what rules are argued, that 1 rule and only that rule will clear the field of race cars.

Everyone has an opinion of what a street car is and their race car no matter how setup is a street car to them. Make them have to have AC and they all become race cars again. Get on rivers avenue at 5:00 pm and drive from aviation to Ashley phosphate, if you have any measurable sweat on your balls when you get there its because you got a fucking race car.
