You try norcal1320, norcal-lsx or sacfodyz? A date would be cool. I think some guys are gonna try to do a turbo buick deal at one of the grudge fests in august. I might show up for that if nothing just to spectate. I go to a lot of grudge nights anyways...
George, only one I don't have it on is the Sacfbodyz.. Didn't even know that sight existed. I honestly don't feel like registering on another site, but please feel free to post a link here.
Updated the rules to the 2,900 NA / 3,300lb Power adder.
Weights are race weight with driver.
I also thought about limiting it to a production block IE, LS1/2/3/6/7 LQ4 L92 ect, but no LSX blocks and
Again, I am open to suggestions but want to keep the rules loose so most all can apply.

Cam,
In your opinion, what would make this more viable to you and your guys?
You mentioned weight, which I dropped down a little.
You mention not having a radial, yet DOT Slicks are ok as mentioned on other sites.
So what works for you? Trying to make this an average Joe heads up race. I think requiring a factory PCM takes a lot of the heavy hitters out and slows it down to at best mid 9 second deal. I bet the majority of the people that would run this would probably be closer to the mid 10 - mid 11 on average.
I'm open to suggestion, but I want to keep it a single class. So please feel free to give some constructional critisism. (And please don't read this text the wrong way like I'm angry, because I'm not).

Sounds like it is more generated towards a street car or a slower field which can and will bring out more cars who think they can win. if slicks were allowed it would be a mid 9sec race. there is 5-6 cars that can run in that range. but beside the point.
just stick to your rules, the weight is good now but most likely it will be maybe a mid 10 sec car and the rest will be in the 11's. good luck and i will see what i can do to try to get there. maybe race the winner for a couple hundred or something idk
as for different classes. if you do this people wont show like usual and it gets to hard keep it to one class and have people step up. its a 100 bucks you never know what is gonna happen.
I guess its just gonna be a couple f-bods at this thing.
