Entry Level SS(MOD) rules proposed

[69Cobra]

I also agree with Sean on the whole clutch manual trans rules. You have no real rules for the auto guys but you want the stick guys to add weight and no this and no that. Why don't you just say NO STICKS allowed and be done with it! Or make the auto guys run a junk yard stock auto with a 10.5" convertor with a 1800rpm max stall?

As far as no counterweights go there are ways around that as well as the no data logger. You know that doesn't mean you can't go testing with a data logger. Get the clutch dialed in then pull the logger out for the actual race.

In the end big money will prevail in the class and kill it! If what you want is a real budget minded entry level class look at the NMRA's Coyote Stock class. They buy their engines sealed from Ford with a factory tune. You can't pull any part of the engine apart or it breaks the seal and you have to buy another engine. Something like this will be the only way you will have a true entry level budget class that will live. Let the Ford guys use the already stock 5.0 crate motor for their cars and get GM and Mopar on board to supply a comparative deal with all sealed motors then turn them loose!
