That is the biggest bs rule there is!! I think Super Stockers should be allowed to burnout across the starting line, especially if the track is questionable when others are spinning! I did it at the Gators a few years ago after 3 in a row blew the tires off in front of me! It got Rick Stewart out of his chair. But I hooked!

Oh, and congrats Charlie on a great run!

I think all cars should be required to burn past the starting line under power, and if you can't do it, you're out.

I would pay to see you do a long smokey burnout in the Turismo.

There's a pic over here... http://classracer.com/classforum/showthread.php?t=29939 Seriously fun! (Ok, so it wouldn't make it over the line, but still fun!)

Hey, they could save some paper (or KB for the digital version) if they'd just delete all those silly rules from the rulebook that nobody really cares about anyway. We should get rid of the 6" height requirement for competition numbers on side windows, since most people don't have them that big anyway. What other rules do we want to vote out or just ignore? Can I get them to rescind the blue light and deep stage my car? After all, it'd just be whining if you had a problem with somebody deep staging. All it does is hurt themselves anyway, right? Shouldn't you be able to run Super Street and another class? I mean that's just stupid. I shouldn't need grade points, either. I'll just pay at the gate at the next national. Courtesy staging? Nah. Who cares what they said for lane choice?

Have rules, or don't have rules.

The track on Sat was real, real cold and there were major problems with bald spots and cars spinning.

It was anywhere from mid 40's to 60 degrees from 10am - 6:30pm. That's going to be typical for this time of year, and I've run plenty of races in those temps and colder where the track was very good. If the track surface isn't working in those conditions, you either need a different compound, or different application thereof.

the water box was half way to the starting line.

Why? Take control of the situation. Control the amount of water in the box, direct racers where to stop and start, etc. The better the burnout box and starting line are managed, the better they stay, and the easier they are to maintain. (Yes, I have worked the line before)


Back on topic: Those Hemi runs and videos were un-be-lievable! Awesome display, guys!

Michael, the way you save space, I bet you rewind adding machine paper and use the other side.
