Since Cayuga is cancelled, what would a Delaware LM have to change to run at Kawartha?
cro since Cayuga would seem to be a neutral site maybe a OK corral shootout between sunset and Barrie. that may put a stop to all the shouldve couldve wouldve and if only talk constantly on the threads. on the other hand from an outsider looking in it is better that watching the soaps.
42crew we dont have to change much. Either a plate or a two barrel cant remember which. And probably some weight depending on what you run. ie coil overs, struts and what not. I recall. Call Derek he'll let you know.
Your exactly right slapdown. This show very easily could have happened if they put some effort into it. Somewhere I read four cars pre-registered for the event. That sounds about right to me, lots of us would have if they would have responded with some pretty basic details. How many laps, what kind of purse, times, entry fees and so on. We tried to contact them many times to no avail and so did alot of other teams in all the divisions. They got what they put into it.... nothin. unfortunatly so did the fans who bought season passes, myself included.
Delaware guys. Derek did away with the restrictor plate after the first night of racing. You will have to add weight because you don't have the small crate, not sure how much. Don't think you guys have any chassis things we don't have. Robblee had his late model there a few weeks back and dominated the show. Hope you guys can make it up here before the season is over.
I see on the Delaware schedule that the LM's have the night off on the 24th. Hope some of you guys could make the trip to the 100 lapper at Kawartha. I really want to see a good field of cars at this event and I'm sure a few Delaware cars will make the show a great one. Here are a few things you guys may need to know. Could some of you Delaware guys that read this board pass this info on to the other LM drivers this Friday?

It also may be helpful to talk to Robblee to see what changes he made. Like I said, he was extremely fast.
