My OPINION as far as NSCRA goes. (The races @ Etown & IFO have their own formulas that mostly work) There are too many classes & not enough cars. "Traditional" front drive Hot Rods & Pro FWD should combine with Modified. Outlaw street should combine with the current rear drive Hot Rods.

Who cares what you do with your car, i didn't ask you.

I know they swapped the tranny out of the outlaw white ek just for this event and i was curious if the car got street driven with that tranny in it.

we pulled the tranny to get the Ek ready for WCF. The dogbbox will be back in it when we return. It does get driven with the dogbox on the street, as it was froven to the Tropical Park meet a few months back.

Pro FWD already runs with the Modified.I do agree that outlaw street should be combined with Hot Rod but some modifications have to be done to the rules because some of the hot rods are running close to 7 sec. and the average Outlaw runs low to 9 sec.

like damain said we took it out for wcf if not there isnt a problem driving it on the streets,we were actually going to take it out to some hangouts after nscra but its just a waste since there isnt nobody out there to run in my street car of intrest.the white ek has been on the street several times when we needed to test it for minor stuff was even on the highway with a parachute,we pulled the trans apart to check stuff a few months back it was bnib.trick is you cant shift it like a bitch or the dogs crash.at the end of the day my car is a street car you can ask anybody who knows me and they will tell you that this bitch hits the road without a problem that what i build my cars for i even have a radio

I don't understand why people complain about a bumper and fenders for True Street. It's the same thing like putting on a body kit. What the hell makes it not so "Street" anymore? And a FWD DOT/Drag Radial tire class would be nice.

I know, I've seen your car out and about...not taking anything away from that. I was at the shop when you were loading up the tranny, axles and shifter box out of the outlaw car. I was curious if you guys drive the car on the street a lot with that setup and how well it takes to street duty since were building a car with a dogbox that's gonna be out on the streets.

I love the nscra and the way they have the rules laided out for true street. If the front end rules change its what ever ill go back to the oem front. I know the true street class for all 3 rounds in the northeast had 16+ cars so that speaks for it self..............

The current classes are fine in my opinion. NSCRA just needs to work on the sandbagging that's going on in the 11.50 index class

First of all I'm not Cwill, Secondly if you car runs 10.40 you should be in the 10.50 class not the 11.50 class and last but not least everyone is complaining about it.

the whole complaining about sandbagging is stupid. its harder to win with a car the goes 10.50's and u have to guess when to let off compared to a car that will go 11.50 on a full clean pass. darnel has won because everyone else in the class runs 11.9-12.2 of course they are going to lose

thats why the blue 240 wit the 2j that went to mryland had a hard time running 11.50? he knew exactly where to dump it to go 11.50 and won the class.

Exactly...with a turbo car, you can EASILY pedal a car to the 1320 mark...if you know what they run, all you have to be is a bumper in front of them.

if you have an 11.50 car on the nose and you miss a gear, your done...if you have a 10.50 car, you can miss TWO!

Sandbaggin is whatever though...i was pissed the first few races, but I love the 11.50 class and its just something else you have to be a good driver to make it happen

first off the 2jz is a 8 second car... and he has not won the 10.50 class...so i guess driving has a lot to do with it... and at the begining of the year we tried to run 10.50 and they said we could not because we don't have a cage...so all the complainers can keep complaining....we are running a class that we are aloowed to run....not our fault that they put the pressure on some people and others get away with it...we are just following the rules..buy us a cage and we will go to true street forget 10.50...we love to race..last year we raced outlaw and got our *** kick every race but it was fun...this year we decided to go with the money and be more competative...come december we will be right there so the haters can keep hating.......Jah Bless...

Index racing is always going to have sandbaggers. Thats the way it is and the way it will always be.

As far as the the classes go, I vote keep them the same at least one more year to see if the classes grow.

I'd really like to know the deal for the 3 piece front ends in True Street. I am getting ready to pull the trigger on buying an Exospeed front, but I don't want to waste the money if it isn't going to be allowed next year. Personally, I don't see why it matters what front end you have. Aesthetically the 3 piece fronts look better than a stock front end, and they have absolutely no advantage over a stock front at all...so why not allow them?
