It will be up to the 2007 points series participants to vote on or make changes. I'm sure Scott will chime in with some updates..

I wonder how many TSM cars will be in TSM in 2008. Now that Dick Kereny totally ruined it for everyone.

I don't know how Dick "totally" ruined it for everyone.

IMO, Dick is pushing the rest of the field to be better. In fact, just because you qualify #1 doesn't mean you automatically win the race.

Most TSM cars break way through the sevens in the 1/8th, you'll probably want to step it up a little if you really want to compete.

Sam is right. You'll have to be in the 5's to be competative. Good luck though! Everyone has to start somewhere!

TSL Might be easier for you Steve. I'm not sure that you would have to change anything.

When will the new rules be posted. I have several cars running in the series and need to know if any of the rule changes will effect us.

Lastly, what was the payout for Dick winning TSM this year?

He knows it's a 1/4 mile, not sure it will be TSM legal though.

Do you really need the answer to that question, I thought it wasn't about
the money but the bragging rights.
