[QUOTE]Originally posted by 93PONY: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Team SOLO: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by 93PONY: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Team SOLO: [qb] 93Pony, what was unfair about John91Coupe being in stock plus 1? His car definitely fit the rules. Are you saying that just because he is smart and built a fast car that he should be bumped up a class because some 18-22 year old kids couldn't afford to build a 9 second bad ass car like John91? Just trying to understand the logic here.... [/qb][/QUOTE]Nope, I had no problem at all with John running in that class. He fit right in IMO. I got 'bitched' at from some of the Norcal Staff & was forced to place the faster Fords in the SPA class. From there I took the initiative to place ALL sub 10 second cars in the SPA (stroker+PA) class that were in the PA class (stock+PA). I moved 3 Fords & one Chevy. [/qb][/QUOTE]That doesn't sound right. Everything I have read is that this race was intended for LS1 Camaro's and 86-current mustangs as it was an EFI race. I understand that carbed cars were put where they could fit depending on violations. My car should be in stock n/a but with all the violations, I would be in Outlaw. That was stated to me, understood, and respected. However, considering that John91Coupe fit the rules 100% (to my knowledge) then he should have been in stock plus 1 unless his violation is that he ran nines which is complete BS!!! [/qb][/QUOTE]I agree. The people who were sticklers on the rules were not around during teching...nor did they even attempt to place any cars in any classes. That was left up to the 4 of us rookies teching.....& by that late in the night I for one was not being a stickler for rules. I was simply trying to place the cars where they'd be around the most cars of similar ET. I would have placed your car in one of the N/A classes...probably the stroker N/A class because it's so fast.....My opinion of the rules was cube for cube, power adder for power adder. But once those 2 8 &9 second mustangs ran, the chevy boys had a fit. There were 13 second PA cars in that class (not that it matters). But, to keep the peace I moved John & the others to a faster class.....were there were other cars of similar ET/MPH running. I did not force anybody into Outlaw.....even with 'violations'. I put the cars where they seemed to fit ET/MPH wise. [/QB][/QUOTE]
