[QUOTE]Originally posted by WHYT LIE: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by 93PONY: [qb] [QUOTE]Originally posted by FasterDamnit: [qb] JohnB was robbed by a racing a car that was NOT legal for the class it was in. bunchmyfunky had to go up after the oil down and try and race in the damn speedy dry- so no wonder he spun and went no-where. bogus. And what happened to Ford vs. Chevy??? Cars were simply run how they were lined up and quite a few imprts were racing, too. The LS1 RX7's were cool and I can see letting those guys run in an LS1 sponsered event. And why were all those race cars that raced during the day allowed to run in Bracket 1??? :confused: [/qb][/QUOTE]A few classes were questionable..... Like John91coupe fitting into stock+1 power adder & a few others. I eventually moved all single digit cars to the stroker+power adder lane....which was suppose to be one step up from stock+power adder. JohnB was simply out-gunned. The only other class to put those guys in was Outlaw....which they definately didn't fit into. I put the electronic equiped cars in Bracket 1. That class had 2 cars in it.....I figured, 'what the hell' & let 3 electronic equiped cars from the previous race in that class. It got a few other fast cars out there & the electronic equiped cars made for some close races when they lined up with each other. I wasn't about to exclude anybody from racing! & that's why we let the imports race as well. We put them in bracket 2 as that was their best chance at winning. As for Ford vs Chevy..... It was not well orginized. I saw only track officials calling lanes to race. No one from Norcal took the initiative to place Fords vs Chevys. It seemed this was more of a 'Norcal Event' rather then Ford Vs Chevy. [/qb][/QUOTE]This event was NOT proposed or advertised as a Ford vs Chevy event... it was "NORCAL SHOOTOUT 2005" which can be taken as Norcal LS1 or Northern California. No need to make it Ford against Chevy in a race such as this. We plan on another smaller EFI ONLY venue next spring. This WILL be Ford vs Chevy and will be lining up Ford against Chevy until the final round... as long as there are enough cars to make the split work. And the track was PAID to pull the cars, line them up, etc. We were supposed to take care of other things. I think people got the wrong impression about this event... The electronic cars were NOT supposed to be using their electronics... I told them if I hear them using a delay box or stutter box, or throttle stop I would eliminate them. But I couldn't watch every run. I don't think I stood in one place for more then 60 seconds at one time the entire night. Next time, they will NOT be allowed to run, as they lied directly to me.
