        I was disqualified at the roof rule OS... We run a full fiberglass roof and upper quarter extensions. I also have an aluminum trunk, body does not meet minimum ride height, I have aftermarket pedals and masters with a bias adjuster, and that's just on a brief browse.

          I see. A shame.

          Henceforth, why stop at intra-florida uniform rules and not go for inter-state/ interstellar uniform rules?

            I could see NASCAR instituting a rules package for every track to be similar, however that could cause MAJOR problems. In FL, you guys are generally pretty close track to track in most divisions. Up here, we have Waterford and Thompson running IDENTICAL rules packages, and then for the most part except for SK modifieds and ACT Late Models, everyone else is all over the map. I assume it's similar elsewhere too. It would just cost way too much money at this point. Would have been something to do back in the 70s and 80s. Not now. It would bury half of the cars imo as much as I would love to see identical rules all over to help travel because imo, a lot of the reason some of the more "different" tracks struggle is because of just that, being so different the car is only good at one place. Me, personally, and I honestly can speak for many others. I want to know that I can go race multiple places with very minimal or no changes. Makes me feel like I am getting more of a return on my investment.

              Yep, yep, yep.

              Hopefully groups of tracks will someday migrate closer together, and then the groups get closer together, and so forth.

              In the meantime, Yoho is a reasonable man . I am sure you could work something out. I am thinking 4-500 lbs of ballast...

              And there is always the "Outlaw Figure 8" class.

              On second thought, better leave it on your trailer right where it is.

                Thank you. Anything but a participation award...

                And thank you for letting us all know you "got" the humor!
                Phil already got his award, a fairly long thread of nothing but compliments and congratulations. That seems to be a difficult thing to do on KARNAC.

                I can't help Phil on the 93 octane, other than recommending Shell 93. It's the 93 octane that most engine builders claim makes the best power.

                If you want to step up to a Crate Motor specific race fuel, Renegade makes several. And there are Renegade dealers in CT. !

                  Our tech guys test fuel regularly up here. We are allowed Sunoco 98 and Sunoco/Pump 93 only. No additives etc. I started the year on 98 and we went to 93 just last race. I don't tempt fate with our tech staff up here. They are all about the same standard as Ricky Brooks. They are tough and don't care who you are. I play by the rules only.

                  Renegade, yes I am shocked by this thread too in a way, but at the same time, there are good people on this forum. We just may not always agree on the same theory's of how it works. But that doesn't make a single one of the people on this forum a bad person.

As for Finney Racing Enterprises he does not sponsor me but I am proud to carry the banner as probably one of the very few up here using his products. I have a very large support group all up and down the east coast of the United States. People I have met over the years in Circle Track and Drag Racing. All of these people have been with me since day one and continuously reiterate their support for me as long as I am racing. One of them set me up with four fresh stickers just today
                      Renegade Racing Fuels is proud to be associated with Finney Racing Enterprises as well, they've been a race fuel dealer for us for years.

                          Much appreciated Rick. My team and I work extremely hard. 7 races in and got my first win in the brand new car and division at one of the toughest tracks and against some of the best drivers around. I'm extremely proud of my crew and thankful for all their efforts. They sure make me look good lol

                          The video you posted was the qual race from 2 races ago. She was definitely tight in snap loose out. We have since made major adjustments.
