Why is there a breakout on S/SS combos?

James Perrone · 07-13-2022, 04:30 PM

Combo race means what it says
Stock and super stock combined eliminations

Why would there be heads up ?
Also you my lose the paying customer with a slow car
Its a racer friendly race
Can go fast as you want
Get paid some $$$

Why do you live in the past. ?

I was thinking about this and I think you want both cars to dial in at their index? Then,there is no breakout.
Whoever is the farthest under should theoretically win.
I bet the car counts would really plummet if this ever happens.

Thats how it was in the old days of Modified Eliminator. You can see that class is no longer in existence. You ran off of the class index. First to the finish line won the round. No Break out .

Comp is run off of the index and no break out. You get CIC hit if you go too far under the index. Comp is having trouble with car counts. The last D2 divisional had 2 comp cars there. So that class is dying a slow death.

NO Teardown at Combos.
No policing of legality.
Lets run No Breakouts!
I will put my boys bracket 422
in my E/SA and run 9.50 and make it
look like my stocker engine on the outside

This thread is way too confusing from the OP.

2023 is right around the corner.
Lots of racers are now promoters nowadays.
Put on the first ever Super Stock/Stock "No Breakout Nationals"
Class Eliminations followed by "NO Breakout Eliminations".

See how it does for you.

Sometimes a thread just goes on and on, same principle as watching a train wreck I suppose…

Ya know, could Pontiac's Revenge possibly enlighten me as to when there was EVER a no break-out S/SS race? As I can recall, except for Class Runoffs, even in the old Jr. Stock days if you ran more than a tenth faster than the existing record during eliminations, you were out. You also were the new record holder and took the car apart.
