T.C. Springer
Determined
I'm starting this in hopes of a FRIENDLY conversation about the area tracks and their B MOD rules.
The rules are so inconsistent from track to track that it would be nice to at least have a set of rules that would make it possible to go to multiple tracks and have a competitive car.
I got these from Springfield Raceway. Jerry has a GREAT set of rules that they are very strict about and the car count shows it every night. Every time I've been there they have had 23+ cars. I think this is a huge number, considering he has 3 classes of modifieds.
Engine:
I think it's downright silly. 12.5:1 is way too much compression for this class. Why not stay 10.5:1 - 11:1? No roller cams! No lightweight cranks.
Suspension:
Very few complaints here. But we need to stick with the 3 link. Implement a trailing arm length variation rule. Like 17" on the left you need to be within a 1/2" on the right side. Get rid of the spring bar! That's a $3-400 expense that isn't needed. Put everyone on a solid bar and but the traction control back in the drivers foot! Make one driver beat the other with his skill!
Please feel free to add to, or dispute anything I have on here. I'm doing my best to be as unbiased as possible, to try and come up with things I think will help this class grow in our area.
