I was pretty hot when I typed all that, and I'm relatively sure I pissed some people off, definitely didn't do much for my reputation that's for sure.

But comments were made that started that line of thinking, and nobody jumped up to say otherwise. It was just something that stuck in my head because very little information was being offered.

There were a couple comments made...I'll have to dig them up.

The only old school setup that has ever been mentioned was a return to a body only format. That's it. That doesn't sound like a nostalgia type class to me.

If tubers are legal, thats great. But the topic was brought up and nobody gave an answer.


I really, truly, seriously hope this all was just a horrible communication error. So much of this could have been avoided...

I think if we afre gonna have to run a body only class....it should be a "real" body...like these

Do you usually jump ahead 5 steps

Lets us do the work and bitch afterwards.

As for the comments--I can simply say "they are wrong"

Hey guess what.... We are getting rid of the 1.9 class.



Oh dear I made a comment that can be spread as false info...

Rarely. Something tripped my trigger, thats all I can say.

You guys do do work, and you do good work, but with nobody saying anything it seemed like insanity and way off base from the norm.

Again, nobody said "look, this is what we're doing" until things were getting out of hand. Yes, I said things got out of hand.

Now that we know about this one new rule, could we be told about other future rulings that might put all of this into place? Starting a new class that is being referred to as "old school" should be limiting to more than chassis style.

And for the record, if it is a true nostalgia class, I've been behind that since it was mentioned a couple of years ago. I love the old rigs and it'd be an awesome class to be in.

appearently the work had already been done,so he did.

As for the comments--I can simply say "they are wrong"

You can only speak from your point of view....I tottaly trust 2 of the people who posted and have no reason to doubt the 3rd
(not that these are actually the ones duuuude is refering to,but I bet they are)

Hey guess what.... We are getting rid of the 1.9 class.

That I fear is inevitable in the far futur,but not the near
this class will replace it likely....at a club level atleast
thats why its so Important to me this class start of with a simulare rule structure as 1.9



Oh dear I made a comment that can be spread as false info...

all this did NOT start from false info

The rule was passed

the frustration was valid

the debate thread was born

and maybe if enough people call,pm...john will reopen it for another vote

if they didnt then john surely wouldnt....there would be no reason......so I'm thankfull this thread has gotten
so much attention.......so for that I must say "thank you duuuude" but your still a socialist

Continue to debate it. I will go back to being mr popular

[Duuuuuuuude]

Actually, I had a great night sc racing, I just stuffed my pie hole with Taco Bell, and I'm a little sleepy. If we want to settle this once and for all, now is the perfect time to do it.

well,hopefully there isnt much more a need too.

Now people are aware.....the info is out

they can call thier reps...and speak thier mind

I have no doubt this will be revisited,not now right now appearently,but it will,I only hope the vote goes the otherway next time.

maybe some members who previously voted body only..after listening to the other commitie members reasoning for it..Will now intead take some time to litsen to those they truely represent,which is the drivers in thier state

[Duuuuuuuude]

I'm waiting on some more info from a committee member...hopefully some of these fires can get put out and things returned to semi-normal again.

Like rock hard said, the bodiless rule will be revisited and reviewed. The good news is they have no doubt how everyone feels about it.

My laptop is just about dead so I'm done for the night. I'll pick this back up as soon as I can.



What has been confirmed is that NOTHING in Sportsman has or will be changed. So go forth and be bodiless!

This is not true, and until the rules are published for 2012 don't count on anything.

You have jumped overboard with this, and filled the thread full of emotion and misinformation.

And on that note I am closing this thread, and the all the others you started on the same subject.
