Subject: Rules meeting for 07 season?

1. How about allowing coil overs? This will allow us more tire clearance so we can get the tires underneath the car for a cleaner look. Most cars already run Coil over shocks with-out the springs anyway. There is no advantage to allowing the spring too. The double adjustable shock is the advantage not the spring.

2. How about allowing Small Blocks with Inline heads to use two 4150 carbs on a tunnel ram cast or sheetmetal. Inline Small Block cylinder head cars need help. Either that or possible allow a third nitrous system on Small Blocks only.

3. How about requiring a different tire size like a 28.0/10.5 max or something similar like that to seperate the FSTA stock suspension cars more from the Limited Street/True 10.5 cars. There needs to be a little more seperation besides the stock suspension. I think this would help the specators, make more of them want to watch the class and increase the car count too.

4. Try to run this class at events/racetracks that have Outlaw 10.5, True 10.5, Index classes ect on the same date. (join forces) Shreveport, LA would be a good place they are welocming Heads up racing at that track and also at Pine Valley raceway in Diboll.

Just some thoughts for next year. You guys vote and decide....

They voted in my 2300 HP turbo alcohol smallblock but wouldn't let someone else run a 600HP smallblock because it had a toilet on it. NO CLUE!

Thats not what made you quit racing. You couldnt get your combo to work and run the number and you didn't have a clue or the Balls to step out and play cause you would have got your ass handed to you.

John Flores went low 20's at the river over the weekend. How much more do the small blocks need???????

The Small Blocks need about .2 tenths from what I seen. Mike Croix/Matt Cook team went a 5.04 @ 146 at Red River Raceway Saturday Night.

They don’t need anything when Mike C, Kyle, Chip, Chaney's old car and Mike Kurtz don’t show-up or leave the race early. Seven cars, 5 SB’s and 2 BB’s, Unc went out first round against John F and Kyle left early!

What you really should be concerned with is the fact that a 3500+ pound 57 Chevy with a BB and “1” kit can run low 5.20’s and FSTA allows that same combination (less ladder bars) run at 3200 and “2” kits!

I will say this, my hats off to Mike and Matt for stepping up to True 10.5/Limited Street. Congratulations on your runner-up.

He runs TTT5 Extreme Street. His car is 3540 lbs and has a 632 with a single fogger. Car runs low 20's on 1 kit. In testing a couple weeks back it went a 5.18, but most of the time it runs low 20's at 135 MPH.

Here is a link to some pic's.

Yes, the open class will have some changes as well as the 2nd class. Would like to see the Open class go more towards limited street and the 2nd class get back to heads up but with limitations to get it back even and more budget minded.

I would not let Ladder bars in and make it a Limited Street Class. Remember this is Factory Street, not Limited Street (LSTA),. I recommend making the open class more open, allow Big Chiefs Heads (Any cylinder head), still single 4bbl and a 632 CI limit, Allow 94mm Turbo with the good intercoolers ect. I do like the idea of a Heads up second class with more limits on Tire, power adders, and engine combo's. What are you guys leaning towards doing?

Single stage Fogger is not really a limit. I can get 700+ HP from one and all you need is a Progressive Controller to control it. Click the link below: My customer set the NMCA Extreme Street record with one of my single stage foggers at 3540lbs on stock suspension with only 525 ci (Stock Block)and conventional cylinder heads.


Click this Link to see 5.20’s with 525 ci BBC w/conventional cylinder heads, one kit, stock suspension at 3540lbs looks like

Leave the suspention stock and allow any power adder..anytype of bigblock 3200, all turbos3200 small block nitrous2900. The crowd wants to see fast cars, not the same ole 3 cars every time.
