Some rule clarifications

Guest · 2008-08-03T19:51:32Z

dad is looking to make Sauble his new home track. He has run Barrie for many years including 2008. My brother talked to the owner as his g/f works at the speedway. They are willing to welcome the new gen thundercar body style. Only difference would be the newer body style, and with the older cars being harder to find, Thundercars in Ontario are going to heading in this direction sooner anyways. Barrie rules are pretty similar to those of Sauble. My question is to clarify the rear weight rule of 47% which the website says. Is this rule enforced or has it been amended since being put up on the website. Also it says Ford rear ends can only be used with Fords but they are allowed. My question is, is there anybody out there running Ford rearends and not running Fords? Dad has a GM but runs the Ford rearend due to the fact that the axles on the Ford rearend are longer and do not break as easily. It is more of a safety concern then any kind of advantage and seeing as you do allow Ford rear ends, would this sort of thing be allowed due to safety concerns of breaking axles? I know GM rear ends break more easily at Barrie.....Any help would be appreciated as I think these are the only hurdles right now that we face to make Sauble our new home track.

That's why they call you the "cheque casher". We had a good car Saturday night to bad we caught up in the lapped traffic crap. Oh well we still finished 11th after going to the back. Shoulda been a top ten though.
