Let's hear it....what does this need to look like? Running along side the current RWD Street Stocks, what would this new generation Street Stock need to consist of?
Just a thought and curious about the pros and cons.
and no "16v 4cyl running with Street Stock" comments. Let's move on.
In my opinion, a fabricated tube chassis has no place or nothing to do with a Street Stock. Your last comment is more where I am trying to go with this.
Is it possible and is there enough interest to run and build 6cyl FWD Street Stocks using cars that are highly available now such as, Luminas, Monte Carlos, Taurus, Intrepids....this sort of thing.
And, could they be made to have parity so that they could still run with what our current Street Stocks are based on. This way, the option is there...FWD or RWD.
Want to start a new class ?
Make a cheap set of rules with easy to find cars /
Make it limited to no modifications ?
The first TEN new guys (not racing in another division) with their cars built and varified race ready get 2 pit passes for the year.
Forget about adding current street stocks there is no way to detune those guys down to strickly stock V-6 level.
Who is Varney Speedway on here do they have any say in what happens or is it more bull-shit ?
Put your name up so we know who it is.
Thanks for the input Mark.
THis post is intended to generate some new ideas. I don't think anyone at the track right now is trying to eliminate classes or add new ones. I'm just putting the feelers out there to see what we might be able to do to boost car counts and the idea of 6cyl Street Stocks has been bantered around for a while now. That said, I have yet to hear anyone agree on what a "6 cyl Street Stock" looks like.
I agree with all of your comments with the exeption of maybe starting a new class. To do this, one would have to go.
It is common knowledge on here that I am the announcer (Jody) at the track and in the past, I do have a say on certain things.
So to answer your question about this thread being more" bull-shit"......I would have to say no. This would be legitimate fact finding.
Incidentally, would you you be one of the "first ten"?
you say one class would have to go,you already lost your thunders,now what street stocks too?
this 6cyl street stock class sounds like it will turn sour real fast,just like in 95 they had the duke 305 street stock class,that was ment for ROOKIES at season end some of them dukes were faster then your street stocks
seems like your takin your smash an bash king of the hill cars an tryin to make a class with them now
turn your street stocks into thunders,they already have the 500 carb,the 7 inch hoosier tires,5 inch ride height,3100 pounds,tin bodys,might as well throw the cam an load bolts at them,if the other 2 cars dont like it,tell them to go to the beach,
when an where is the rules meeting????
