UMP B Mod Rules are a JOKE ! And they will jerk you around even after the Rules are posted...... I think they should be same Rules as Modifieds ... Just Engine Restrictions..... Better for everyone... Mods have a place to sell there used cars.... and Beginners can learn in same suspension...
I know of 2 tracks in our area that are not UMP RULES this year ... .and No plans of it ... I just wish they would also get on board with others and drop UMP all together
there is always LUCAS OIL LATE MODEL EVENTS...... IMCA SPECIALS, USRA EVENTS, And if they pay the $$ they will get the cars if its fair rules and Ran good .... No track needs any Sanction Body to draw cars
Last year we Raced B-Mod and this Year we are going to have a B-Mod and A-Mod and I have decent Cars and no Stackers/ etc ... and I do have a horse in this race.... is why I am making my opinions heard
Well when you have Teams rolling in with 2 and 3 cars in a Double Decker and Toterhome that is more than most peoples homes... and Motors that cost 1/2 of some peoples homes... I would say that's Big Budget Race Teams.
My point is that we should make it more affordable for the weekly racer and not cater to the High Priced teams.... and not make local racer buy memberships if they don't care about the points...
Exactly my point those teams will race and chase points ... so the local guys suffer on a weekly basis so that they can have ump tracks to race at and chase the points .... Tracks need to focus on the local weekly racer and forget the Big Budget Race teams... they can travel if that's what they want
Even if the tracks go NON UMP.... and keep the same rules.....Is an option or I think it should be option to join and get points or not join and not get points...if they stay UMP This way racer has option... not railroaded into purchasing something that is no benefit to them and there program.
Only thing that I would add is they have Insurance that from what I understand they don't pay until every other insurance is paid.. (track and personal) the points fund is a Joke.... (what does it cost to have to run for the point compared to what the points pay) Just do some quick math and...
