strickly stock race

[ss29]

last weekend at nss the strickly stock race was run backwards.thats right we made right turns not left.if you were there what did you think about it?
i thought it was fun but it would suck to get a LF flat that might hurt...lol

That sounds like a fun race to watch. Wish I had seen it. Let us know when they do that one again.

A lot of tracks do that, because it discourages guys from "tuning" their "Strictly" Stocks into a left-turn-only car. It forces people to set their cars up neutral, because they don't know until they pull on the track, whether they will be going clockwise, or counter-clockwise.

If you mess with the front end to get a better handling car for left turns, boy are you screwed when you head into turn 1 turning right!

Maybe a Figure-8 setup would work... camber the hell out of BOTH front wheels!

Really?

I've been going to CMP for 6-7 years and don't think I have ever seen a race like. Saw them drive in reverse at Ocala though. That was fun to watch.

OSW did that when the class was called the Bombers. Would flip a coin to decided which way to race them, also did it with the spectator races. Put on a great show some nights.

Whatever

Whatever the crowd want to see is fine by me! I say next week we do a road course or a driver switch off race or pit stop race or anything anybody else can think of

[Cara]

I remember having them drive in reverse one night. What a show!!!

Years ago, New Smyrna's Enduros were run to halfway the counter-clockwise (correct) way, then when the leader got the halfway flag, they'd turn down pit road, make a 180-degree right turn at the end of pit road, and run the rest of the race clockwise (the wrong way around). Problem was, some of the field wopuld still be coming around counter-clockwise after the leader got back on the track headed into turn four and three...

They showed highlights of the reverse race and other ones on the LIGHTS CAMERA TRACTION show on Brighthouse cable.
