Tim stick with what you have. There is nothing more unsettling to a racer than rules changing all the time. Get all your input as you have done and release a final set of rules. Nothing kills class racing as much as rule changes. Look at the problems that the NSCA had when they kept changing rules, car count goes down. People will not build cars quick enough to keep up with changing rules. Better to take your time with the rules and get them right the first time so that in the off season slight tuning of the rules can take place not wholesale changes.

Brian don't take it so personal that your input is not being used. You made valid points on some stuff. Yeah it sucks that your car does not fit the classes perfectly, but that is life. However a lot of the time an idea not used my make others think of a better way of doing things. It just happens that the majority of the people here did not agree with you. Nothing personal just the way they feel about it. It seems that you have a nice stocker setup if that is true and you race it enough you should be able to really wipe the floor up with these guys on the tree. I am sure you probably have more hits at the tree than most of these guys. Use this to your advantage!

On a final note most of these guys will not care about the money. Yeah it is nice to get paid if you do well, but guess what you would still race if there was never any money paid out. You can't honestly say that you would sell your car if every track decided to stop paying out money. Amazing that there are still people showing up on T&T nights for no money.
Oh just to let you know I will be there in Hot Street on Drag Radials with N/A combination, bringing the knife to the gun fight. Hopefully my driving skills and 9 second combination will be enough for now in the class. If not I guess I better get working harder.
