Default Re: Is it time to fix Super Class Racing?

The thing that I disagree with the most with some of those that want to fix the .90 classes are the ideas that the indexes need to be lowered. If that is done then it would only be a matter of time before technology catches back up and you have the same high MPH cars that you have now. Some have also said that lowering the indexes will cause the casual spectators to become more interested. How will that happen? The game is still the same, only the numbers on the boards have changed. I guess I am looking out for my own interest because my car in the best weather conditions is a 10.50, maybe 10.40 car. The car and set-up that I use is to take advantage of the S/ST rule that allows me to run with an 8 pt. roll bar, no chassis certification required and I am able to wear the single layer jacket and pants. If the indexes are lowered I would no longer be able to run the class.

I would not have a problem with doing away with throttle stops and even delay boxes in the class and going back to the old ways of doing things, like it was before I started running the class. My throttle stop and delay box are not the latest and greatest items, but both were purchased used from other racers, so I would not be loosing much as far as investment goes.




Hey Dan Moore. you're #1.
