    Update: The racetrack has decided to allow all drivers to compete in the limited division following this weekend!

      Who would make the decision about which drivers were allowed to compete. Sounds to me like Hickory would open a huge can of worms with rules like these. If you can’t keep up then work harder and throw more money at your program. Hmmmm maybe they could tie your left hand behind your back or duct tape one eye closed to even the field!

We went to practice Friday by the end of the day we were 2 tenths faster than anyone else the last two weeks(and 100% legal) Came back Saturday and poof you guys have to carry an extra 150 lbs Now that wouldn't be the end of the world for a big team with spares and scales at the track but for a team that had nothing we had no hope of rebalancing ride heights, springs, shocks etc and scaling a car with 3 guys in under1 hr Guess what we were junk(bottoming out etc no surprises there hell we struggled just to get heights and weights for tech.

    When you start your entry to the corner or "angle in", her front bumper is already at or past your door (which you can clearly see at 21:15) but you "expect her to give you more room"? When should she have backed off to let you in, halfway down the back stretch or off turn two. And you think I'm the one that doesn't know how this works, lol.

      I expected her to also turn for the corner at that point. It isn’t about the straight away, it’s about where I predicted the car inside of me to be on corner entry. She was holding me out for entry which is fine, i just predicted it wrong. Never once said i expected her to lift. I just predicted to have another couple inches of space as we turned in.
