In my opinion the top tire in Chris's post is only dot approved for certain street type classes. I think I have read somewhere that it says "not approved for highway use" on it somewhere. If it's not on there it should be.

That being said those are the tires I was talking about when I said even if it says dot approved doesn't make it a true street tire.

Hoosier QTP are the same way. They would be illegal.

If thats the case, you should make this a street tire only race. Exclude all drag radials too (not counting the nitto 555r's because they suck). Auto cars are doing really well on et street radials (Wes), but they are a huge handicap for manuals.

those aren't aftermarket blocks just a different vehicle company stock OEM block.

Why not limit some more.

* Must ran same fuel as the vehicle did when brand new?
* can not take off tailgate, bedcovers etc?
* Must have OEM shocks or stock replacements, no adjustables
* Must have a 6 disc cd changer and no aftermarket speakers
* Must have same size wheels/tires available on vehicle for that model year.
* Stock fuel tanks. NO CELLS


Does that sound retarded? I think it would go well with the other "rules" also.

You can count me out on racing any of the tdl crap. Not like we would do any good. Its just a bunch of stupid ass rules to pertain to certain people.


Or Ignore most of the BS posted in the rules and add this IMPORTANT ONE. MUST PASS TECH for times and speed the vehicle runs
