If you have a new generation car with a race motor in it then you have a 150lb weight penalty.....the oo thunder car has had this all season why else would he be in second place......

Being a lap down in the one feature race he ran and not finishing that race may have something to do with being in second place.

i believe it is a new generation car with a built motor and not a crate motor will get the 150 lbs weight penalty! a new gen with a crate does not get a penalty! This is to try to get people to use the crate motor!

i wondered what the rule was for that..........i remember 3 or 4 years ago when they first brought that car out and steve was driving it, it was suppose to have a crate in it>>.but when we raced against him at the year end special at sunset it was a built motor and he smoked everyone>>>i thought all new gen were suppose to have crates in them?

nope. if they don't it's a weight penalty! that's all there is too it!
