I heard they may be allowing 16 valve car at Barrie? what does everybody thing? I like the idea, this way we can get into newer cars that arent so hard to find.
I think that it is a bad idea...the 16 valves at sunset totally dominate the class besides a few other cars..the 12 valave cars are already some of the fastest on the track at barrie..and when those guys slap a 16 into them they are just going to be even faster..the new race director seemed to be oblivious of the whole situation and in my opinion does not have near information to make a decision about that..the topic couldnt even be discussed because one of the new owners was pushing everything ahead and didnt seem to care about the idea..if a new rule like that is going to be implemented it needs to be announced at least a year of head of time to give people time to make makes changes..all in all the drivers meeting didnt accomplish much
Ya i know what you mean, 16 valve took over sunset, but look at our track, its dominated by mustangs (till this year) and they are mostly all very fast. I do think that it would be a better idea for maybe next year though because by the time they let us know it wouldnt be much time to get one ready for this year.
so did they say they are allowing them? if they said they "may" allow them, when did they say they'll decide?
were there any big changes to the ministock rules at barrie that were announced at the meeting?
faulkens are allowed at sunset now for the 4 cyl....there was a vote for them 3/4 were in favor...
no they did not say they were allowing them...we couldnt even talk about it because the new owner didnt really seem to give a crap so the topic just ended..and the discussion went no further..and the new race director didnt see how 16 valves had an advantage over 12...he may have alot of experience but that doesnt seem to say much...also they didnt make any new changes, they said they will in the following weeks after taking peoples opinions..which they didnt do very well
