Well I race in the class formerly known as the A-class at Sweet Springs now. I have NO cockpit adjusters now and I hit my set-ups quite often. And when I'm off, the one adjuster would be all I would need to dial it in most of the time. Plus any tire helps hook up all the extra motor! Put a hard tire on them and it would help level the playing field. It doesn't need to be stamped, just needs to pass a durometer test. Plus we race for 30 laps, which in a race with no yellow flags (which happens often enough) that 0.10 adds up to a 3 second advantage on a track that 12 seconds is a lap, that means a quarter of a lap advantage. Plus you are just comparing record times, not the times that are consistently posted by these two classes which is closer to 0.30 to 0.50 seconds faster in many cases! I think this is all a huge step in the right direction, it just needs something else to level the field even more. Don't ask me what it is, but there has to be something.
