Default North vs South Shootout Rules/Classes

Brackets

Pure Street

Modified Street

King of the Hill STREET

King of the Hill OUTLAW

The next step is weight penalties. Post your thoughts on how you think weight penalties should apply to each class.

Looks like I'll throw some ballast in the car and run Modified Street. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />

I guess the 3200lb minimum is OK, but personally I'd prefer to see it around 3000lbs, and let the big motor guys required to be around 3200.

I'd just like my small motor to be somewhat competetive. I'll probably be there in any case, though.

If tire size was mentioned in modified street I must have missed it. Tire size allowed?
Thanks

Woops, pure street and modified street will compete on a dot tire.

The no mini tubs or suspension relocation mods will be the limiting tire size factor.

Is this the race that says company insurance is not allowed?

Based on the Positive phone calls, emails, and your responses on the board, this seems to be the format you all are after. Thanks for everybody's help and input, this should go over well!

Oh, must not be then. There was a race being discussed the other day that said that proof of insurance had to be shown and that corporate insurance was not allowed.
