Subject: ok , here's a thought

I thought we are starting an "outlaw" class for next year.
Let the "outlaw" class be 9.99 and faster. No limits on motor, power adders, tires, etc....

10:00-10:99 Top Guns! No limits- No restrictions.
11:00-11:99 Super Street! No limits-No restrictions.
12:00-12:99 Super Stock! No limits-No restrictions.

so on and so fourth.

It's just a suggestion for the outlaw class because alot of people are gonna definately be sandbaggin, and wise racers should. When the big fish are reeled in, then and only then will the badasses actually show what they can/can't do! Anyone that knows .5 of someone elses times knows whether or not they got what it takes or not. I can tell ya right now, mali may not EVER leave the top gun class....Sandbaggin is all part of racing! Who's ever heard of an honest racer??? or an honest race??? What's really dumb is how the hell can u have a freakin' Heads up Racing Assoc. when no damn body runs a freaking PRO TREE???
That's more like the bracket shit! We joined this club to be part of Heads Up, anyone can go anywhere and bracket race.
The only rule that this club needs is :
1. all classes run what ya brung-hope ya brung enough!
2. all races will be run on PRO TREE!
3. if there's a et difference big enough to negotiate, then that's up to the individual's themselves.

That's alot easier on everyone, especially those who are trying to stay on top of each race, keeping up with who did what, who's got what, and when/where they did it...

Keep it simple and less confusing. Stick to something, and stop changing the shit everytime someone bitches/cries about it being unfair. ex: labmouse vs. hoopty. there should be a damn negotiation there between those 2 guys, it should not involve this club!!! It's basically none of our business what they do. or with anyone else. As long as they are paid members, meet the living requirements, and make a call out, that should be all that's needed or required by this club!

I'm not bitching, and I don't intend for this to sound that way. Eddie I understand that you are working your ass off trying to make this thing grow. Us as well as other members did not join this club for the purpose of pleasing crowds. I'm just saying that this is "our" club as a whole group, let us do what we (as members)wanna do and agree upon, and if there's a crowd to watch fine, if not, oh well, we'll all still be doing this shit with/without spectators. Racing is an ego thing, not a trophy thing. It's bragging rights mostly, always has been/always will. Whether or not we even run for trophies half the members don't really care. Yes, it's nice to have sponsors who put up $ to give us racers something to show for our work done, and we all sincerely appreciate that. But my point is, that we as racers, will continue to do this with/without you all.
Well, sorry this is such a long post, didn't plan on it being that way. Just wanting to remind everyone what racing is all about. So many people get caught up in the bullshit, until it totally takes all the fun away from even doing it anymore. Maybe that's what happened to bluestang??? Maybe that's why all the haters post the bs, instead of joining??? Who knows???
I understand that with any club, organization, etc... there's always rules involved, but my point is to KEEP IT REAL! Keep it simple, and let the rough side drag!
