I wont make that date. Same week as my daughters graduation. Kinda hard to believe, but some things are more important than racing. Family man first. Ya'll have a good time and be safe.

Lower race weights.... lower race weights.... lower race weights.... lower race weights.... lower race weights.... lower race weights.... You know you want to. You could also implement something like a weight break system. Where you have something like stock short block = - 50 lbs, stock heads / cam = -75 lbs, etc... That would potentially make the field more even.
