    This kind of Bullshit should be figured out BEFORE the season starts, NOT IN THE MIDDLE OF IT.


    how long have i been pointing out that the next years rules should be ready by the end of the regular points racing for the prior year? if you were slacking, you might issue them at New Years. Speedweeks would be your "drop dead" point ( ie - if you can't figure out your new rules by Speedweeks you'll probably drop dead because you forgot to inhale air ).

    the racers need to know what they're supposed to be building towards. they're going to have ~4 months off, while the hell can't you let them work on things in the off season?

    Speedweeks is only God's own advertising gimmick. how the hell can you not have your full schedule and rules out by then? how many fans and racers come to your track that aren't likely to be back for the rest of the year?

    tracks in the other 49 states in the Union must look at the wasted opportunities in Fla and ask themselves what the heck we're smoking down here.

      and fyi , no other track in the state of florida runs 10 inch tires or rims on sportsman , only osw and nss . now all tracks are on 8 inch . thats awesome but now what do all of us do with these 10 inch rims ? scrap ? flower pots ? anyone use them on dirt tracks ?

      most sensable people would find it obious that the solution is to make some sort of modern art out of it. How nice it would be to have a full scale replica of the Eifel tower or Leaninf tower of Pisa, just think, You gould be the only one in samsula/New samantra with your very own crome statue of liberty.

      But since you mentioned flower pots you must be more into interior decorating so how about something like this

      lets all take a long ride on a short bus.

      I quit fishing because no one was standing at the docks handing out money when i got back, why did you quit racing?

        body idea

        For the body, leaving it completly open can be extravagant a tad. How about these 3 steps:

        Maximum width outside to outside is: .... Inches
        Maximum height to highest point, roof, spoiler and side pods included: ...Inches
        Maximum lenght from furthest front point to further tip of rear: ....Inches

        With these 3 easy steps to measure, it's still open to creativity, which is good I think, and tight enough to not end up with a ''star war style'' field of cars.

        This is just an idea.
