Completely Unofficial New Smyrna 6/27 Recap

I've never understood slow cars. Why even bother?

Every series and level of racing I have been involved has had cars of different levels of competitiveness. From the short dirt & asphalt tracks, to the Rolex 24 at Daytona and everything in between. My opinion is, if they meet the rules, safety and otherwise, they should be allowed to race. Grand Am had a minimum speed rule of 110% of the leader's lap time. But, as OS said, in these days of low car counts, I don't blame the track for being hesitant to chase someone off.

And remember, the 81 car, dubbed at the time "the worlds oldest late model", eventually won a feature at Bithlo by driving through several wrecks and then holding off faster cars.

Plus, I am not big on the "we all should..." thing, but I do feel that supporting the racing community at whatever level they compete at is not a bad thing.

It used to be, at least where I grew up, cars had about 2 weekends after the opener to get their appearance up to "rules" and NO "strictly stock" paint jobs allowed.
This was enforced in all classes, and after 2 weeks if you were not meeting minimum appearance rules you took a little hit at the pay window.
Of course crew members in the pits were in "uniform", the car number they were with on their shirt and white pants- LoL

things are different now, back then kids wore their pants around the waist and women showed a little modesty- times have changed and our society has coarsened....
