make a limit for the steet class. If they run over that make them go unlimited class which also states you HAVE to have certain modifications for safety

I like the limit as well. I will go look and see where to vote. We have 12 valves here turning 6000+ rpms and it is tough to play with that.

I see what those guys are saying about the air restriction not equalling anymore hp but that also gives them a longer rpm band to stay on top of the turbo. Lets face it a broader band of power is better than a higher hp spike.

dont know alot about pulling but if yer guna call it "street truck" make them survive a 25-50 mile cruise around town like they did in the mustang racing series.

you could show up in a 7 second tube chassis car but you better be able to drive it on the street at least 25 miles..........

If you have the rule at 4500rpm or whatever you choose... How do you plan to enforce the rule?????

It makes no difference what the rule is if you can't enforce it. Anyone can hook up a memory tach to magically recall 4490 rpm or program the EFI live software to do the same thing

Rules keep the big guy from blowin his wad and beatin the little guy. Thats why you have different classes. Maybe more classes are in order.
