"On the horizon, and this is just my personal gut feeling, is the elimination of the LLM and then turn it into a full blown Late Model division. If this is the case, hang onto your butt because something going to get jammed up there when that happens."

if you look at the rules of most LLM tracks sauble and sunset the two biggest, besides the name LLM the are already late models....when everyone else see that all its going to do is put more cars on jack stands in their shops long term

Part of the problem is the tracks never consider why they went from Late Models in the past to the Limited Late Model. It seems as if history keeps repeating itself  but few are learning. I was talking to a racer on Saturday and he came up with a side of the story I never thought of. Few promoters have had to race on an average racers budget to actually feel the pain every time a rule changed or a division has been upgraded. Far too many racers have had to quit because they couldn't keep up with the added expense every time a new rule book came out.

I've probably said more than I should have and certainly more than I promised myself that I would say. Most of you guys are on the right track and now all you have to do is make it happen.

We tried over 10 years ago to get the track owners to look at vortec heads in the late model-Allstar class. Our heads were not only expensive to prep it was even back then getting harder and harder to find good ones.
The vortec with a dish piston would keep the compression where it needs to be and we would be back to buying something off the shelf.
