they just decided to let Hybrids in as long as they meet the weight
Are they really going to let hybrids in???? Where can I find the official rules?
Couple of items. One is the fuel tank must be able and take 10 gallon minimum at fillup on Friday AM. The next one is minimum weight must be met of 3550. Motor is a 109 block, and run on 93 octane as the only fuel cept for the injection. Injection is to be a methanol and or water mix.
There will be contingency money this year in the class. I have put some money torward the class as well as doing contingency in the event the winners have my system on the car.
Right now working on sponsorship from others.. i'll post when we have more definitive.
Rules are from last year. Peer's really have a say as to who they allow in the class and whats allowed. I really dont like rules, as this requires following up. And as always, Peer's..meaning those who bring their cars to the event have the say. The GSCA I know wants only Regals and TTA's as they already have a "Hybrid Class". I personally dont care, when I get all the sponsors input, this will be zipped up..
Cheers
I wont budge on the vehicle weight, 109 block, or fuel capacity.. thats just me trying to keep a level playing field.

Minimum weight of 3550??? Turbo6 you better start hittin the chinese buffets everyday to put some extra weight on your scrawy behind because you will never reach the minimum weight requirement. Please come take a pass in my car so I can gain half a second in the 1/4.
Technically you did lose last year
whats "Technically" mean ??? you either won or you lost
hmmm was it a bracket race ??? whats "Technically" mean ??? you either won or you lost
The fastest car doesnt always win.. the faster cars did it to themselves last year. Its the car that can go round after round.. cuts a light.. and stays on its game.
An 11.0 car beats a 10.50 car.. when the 10.50 is not on its game. Reaction time plays a role. and .5 seconds is not a lot when staging/building boost, etc.
