I like the 93 octane rule.

beavis

Jason also did like it and seemed like he will go with it but I cant speak for him, I was just judging from his response to the idea.

Iam sorry Iam not bitching as you call it.... I was just making a comment. I haven't gone to Jason@MIR or anyone that makes these rules to ask them to change anything because I know that Iam only look at from MY point of view ( what will make me win!). LOL!!

still think a 2500-2600lbs weight requirement would be good tho

P.s Iam running a V6 so this also would apply to me

rayray24

93 rule sounds good
but who runs race gas? I can't think everyone at the moment

97VRT

Stupid fast huh? so that Maxima with just his back seat out at 2600-2700 pounds going 12.5 ON radials isn't fast huh?

The pink Gti on Slicks and skinny is only going .2 faster. Think of what a maxima at 2300lb's on 23in slicks and skinnys would go with a good driver....yeah 11's

Fwi 12V VR6's Hit a brick wall around 200-210whp. So them at 2600 pounds would be WAY slower than all of the 300+whp maxima's.

I have this feeling you have a maxima? Why don't you work more on your chassis of your car. Every bit of weight counts less drivetrain strain and breaking. Welcome to heads up racing. It takes WORK to win.

The 12v VW's are out of power, I wouldn't sweat those.. and none are even close to 2100lbs. Rule prepped the lightest mine has been is 2460.

I can second 97vrt on the maxima comment, he went 12.5s in a four door family car on drag radials at from what i understand 118mph. If that mph is right it doesnt add up to the et, Im not complaining about it because i went a .10 slower on a bone stock block with a semi built head that barely made 230hp. Im gonna build something for this year that is gonna actually have some *** behind it not a torqueless wonder. As well as suspension and chassis work because im running on blown out stock suspension with cut springs

almost positive BigTuna ran race gas.

i enjoy watching this class as it gives the little guy a place to run for not a lot of money. A lot of the BS that comes up in other classes isn't here in this one. Its just good ole racing

beavis

Thats the truth. Keep the BS out of this class. Just race and dont complain about anything if you lose.

rayray24

I dont own a Maxima and never will
I do like this class and follow/race it all season. like you said a 2300lb max would run 11's so y not have a 2500 weight requirement??

honesty I just like running in this class its affordable and competitve

rayray24

his trap was 108

yellowrocco87

i like street stock. its my favorite class. and i have several friends that race in said class. it would be stupid to get rid of it. i'd like to build a car for street stock in the not so distant future. i had planned to this year but all the BS talk about adding a weight limit scared me off lol

Paul_VR6

I'd just put my AC back in, it'd make drive down more enjoyable.

supersi00

I think the weight should b what ur car stock weight is to make it fair

beavis

That would be dumb and im sure everyone else in the class would agree with me. No weight restrictions heads up run what you brung racing, how drag racing is suposed to be. if they inforced that rule 75% of the class wouldnt be there because they would be at the store buying dumb bell weight sets to put in the back seat. lol

BIGTUNA

Show up and race

supersi00

Than it should be left the way it is and everybody just bring there cars out n have a good time cuz that what its all bout

beavis

Im gonna call Jason and talk to him a little bit more about it tomorrow sometime. It will get settled soon. Im sure everything will work out before the season begins

RootBur

I'm def getting a better feeling about this. :/

beavis

Dont worry Tim, im fighting for it. Hey are you working tomorrow

RootBur

Yep, till 3, and sidework till 7 or 8 i imagine.

Making us run on 93 octane will make it harder for us racers with d-series cars to compete. I know Tuna ran on race gas last year and so did I in our CRXs.

As for weight limits, I think we should have no weight limits. I by no means have a gutted car, I have a full weight Si CRX and I would not be happy if I had to add hundreds of lbs. to my car.

I ran in the s/s class at boti event's, and I think it's sick I hope that it stay's around...

ctr_ek209

i say keep s/s and they should allow us to run race gas if not then they at least have to let us run e85 i raced s/s the past two years and have had so much fun even though im on the west coast i am deff plannaing to make some east coast races i think s/s should get a points chase i know i am ready to play out east.... just want somthing to work towards (points championship)

beavis

A 100 octane max would be nice but that would be too much work for a class that gets a $500 payout for first place. Like I said before, it will get settled soon Jason is a busy guy and he will get to it sooner or later
