    UMP steelblocks

    Wow so many thoughts. JMO but, If you really want to help make the class make it there are some changes that would be easy to police and are of minor cost. Have the front wheels weight come over the scales @1100lbs. leads cheap. This will bring the cars balance to about 51% to 52% rear and...

    There is no such thing as UMP Iron Man division!!

    Welcome Mr. O, If you look back to where I expressed the no shaft rockers that is just what I was refering to. A 23 deg. head. No rolled heads. These heads will make low 600 hp and are very reasonable and reliable to run and most of the mods have them anyway. But again we are talking about...

    hey racin90, how do you feel about the IMCA spec. cylinder head? these heads limit hp to the low 600s and they also race on hard tires. seems IMCA saw it coming too. you really can't believe that an iron block rule will bring cost effective control into play. Alum. blocks are about weight...

    Well now I'm glad you feel so strongly, and thats OK too. But I must agree with Dean, Tires make a huge differance. Oh and by the way there where more times we didn't get the money than we did. Mad that Nascar is not here, No I'm not disapointed yes. Bashing a track NO a promoter YES! and he...

    There is no such thing as UMP Iron Man division!!

    just my point, lap times are not the point. C O S T Control is the point! I believe Dean and I are talking about the same thing but very few are listening and until they do the late model class will continue to grow smaller. Tires will control out of control engine costs and this is easy to...

    Hard tires are the answer. it works at peroia and the only reason we did not ask for the 55s all the way around is that Tri- City would be the step child again. Most teams have a 40 in the trailer and they would not have to buy tires just for one place. it takes heat in the tires to work or not...

    Venus as normal you wish to continue to personally attack someone when you don't know the details. As I said My issues are with Wente not the late models that are going to race there. I will be glad to pass on the details with you if you wish, just call me and ask. john de priest 636 253 6400

    Well Befudded get this, You must not have been at any of the trailer meetings we had. every driver and his car owner was asked to attend. At these meetings we discussed the topic of 2004 rules. we where asked what we would like to see changed by the management in one form or the other on many...

My heart felt conqrats to all for all of your hard work this year. There is not an award presented that can match the feeling of putting your best...

    Tcs 2004

    Good luck to all At Tri-City. There's one late model that will not be there. I'm Sorry Nascar's not part of it. There had been a considerable amount of intrest expressed in the late models, also with the fact that it had been proven that a regional champion could come out of Tri-City Speedway...
