I would think that any LSX platform whether it be carb'd or EFI would be allowed to play.

I hope so, I'm running a carb setup right now. I may be converted back to EFI by then but either way I don't think it should matter.

The NMCA isnt likely to open up and "try" a class if they dont see any nitrous cars willing to even show. They dont know you exist if you havent shown up.

SMKN95 has it right, show up to get your *** handed to you to tell them you will actually bring your stuff out - might have a shot at organizing something following.

I think if your trying to get nitrous guys going, allowing slicks would help turnout, although I like the radial stuff all the way around.

I doubt NMCA will do anything this year but maybe I'm wrong. We are building a nitrous car that's going to light up the internet talk for sure come this spring and I'll run the new class if it's at the LSX shoot out.

Just make it nitrous, stock suspension, ls based, and you will get more players. Any tire, any kit(s), any trans (no clutchless), no wheelie bars.

Control the cubes with weight limits.

Mmmmm... only 1 or 2 nitrous cars last year shootout, its has not worked yet, it was never tried. I didnt see many pulling their skirts up and racing.

slim chance they will make another radial class. If anythign like Conrad said, anything goes nitrous class would be the one that gets filled out first

He is talking about the 1st year, the N20 cars made up 1/2 the class and got killed. With no rule changes there is no need to come back.

They can have there turbo race if thats what they want.

We will be busy kicking your *** in the local 275 stuff all year, no need to go to Memephis to do that.

Are you retarded. I mean seriously. the top 5 nitrous cars still togeather all showed up the first year and all got waxed in the first round. and last year i don;t think any of the guys willing to get kicked in the nuts agian made it ou of the first round.... so yes it has not worked.

as for roling up skirts did you bring your car out to race? before you answer were not talking about your part time girlfriends car either.

ok first off if you have an anything goes class you will get 4 cars. The fast ones and all the 9 second and high 8 second cars will not show( like the last 2 years) . the idea behind 275 1/8 mile racing is you have to use the most hp that you can hook and get down the track. the most hp/tq don't always win its about a working car. It makes the avg guy have a shot. if you catch someone sleeping and hook you can beat a car with 300 more hp but in the 1/4 hes probably coming around you.
