What are the problems that you have with the ump rules ?Sorry fella but think Kevin prolly has the most sensible rules now would like to see quick changes added and that's it but think Kevin has the right ticket I was skeptical last year but he has proven he was correct
Quick changes, aluminum spools, spec shocks, no overslung chassis, panhard bar behind the rear end.. Makes no sense.What are the problems that you have with the ump rules ?
But they're adding 100 lbs each year to the cars running those motors so that everyone will feel obligated to go buy crates and they get their kickback earlier! Makes sense considering usra gives the 360 ci. 9.5:1 compression motors a 100 lb weight break over the crates! And they are very equal! Still doesn't help my case having a 400 ci but I think overall TCS had a very even set of rules this year, and ump gave what they did for the class zero consideration.The rules say plain as day for the 2015, 2016 and 2017 you can run a non crate engine
H.) As an option, for the 2015/2016/2017 season(s) , a “Steel Block/Steel Cylinder Head” engine may be used. This shall include:
The ump rules are just what this class needs. You have two good seasons to run an open motor without the weight effecting you these car weigh 2500-2600 with the driver anyway. The shocks you have now just need approval. You can run a j bar in front of the rear end you can run eliminator's. Hell QC change rear end are fine nobody is forced to run them. The points fund will go up. This year they are giving a motor to the winner along with the money. I'm still not sure what the problem is. The only problem we will have with this class will be Kevin not running the ump rules. Remember these are b mod/sport mods not a mods!!But the rules also don't say I can't just run with a mods which I like doing at belle Clair so maybe this year we run Macon or I run with Kevin but I refuse to pay for another hard card and sticker for a governing body that takes ur money and gives it to other classes do the math ump national champ gets 1000 but highland just paid there track champ 600 so u tell me what makes more since I would rather pay a membership fee to the track of my choice to know that the class I race with has a chance at a nice points fund at end of year

It says j bars are allowed it It also says eliminator's are allowed.they didn't do the best job on the wording them."One panhard bar, a minimum of 23”-inches in length must be mounted behind the rear end housing. The lower spring perch must be welded to the rear end housing."
Maybe I'm reading it wrong but how are you to run sliders (eliminators) if it basically states here that u must run springs on top of the rear end?
