I Propose
V6 classes, I mean theres enough members with V6 F-Bodies and quite a few race. we could have them classed by stock engine or modified. Just an idea.

Thanks for your OPINION wasn't really asking you. I'm more or less putting the idea out there to the V6 guys cause maybe if enough of them want we could have a decent showing.

We've tried the v6 bracket classes before, and they were quite poorly attended. There aren't enough fast v6 cars to warrant a v6 specific heads up class, and in bracket racing it doesn't matter if you're going up against a v8 car....

I meant two heads up classes, stock and modified, just to keep it simple.

if you are interested in V6 vs V6 racing there is some discussion on www.FullThrottleV6.com about doing an FTV6 Clash style event in the northeast.
unfortunately we don't have the resources to attract enough V6 specific sponsors and cars to make the classes worht while. maybe in a few years we can try something, but for now it is unrealistic.

You shouldn't even have to ask that.....get everyone you possibly can to attend.
The more people who show up and participate, the more attractive the event is to potential sponsors, the more prizes and awards we can give away.
