I was involved in the 1st meeting for starting 360 here in MI w/ the Lacombe Bros, I went through every Open Wheel magazine & Circle Track I had looking for ideas for rules & gave to them, they adopted everyone:6:. Even the $1500 claim for the heads which kept a lot of hi dollar stuff out, but along comes ASCS we had to adopt or lose car count:15: I was at a race & Paul Hazens car won on a used American Racer tire, Paul said he'd use it again it still looked good:31: I've seen all kinds of "Rules" to save money over the yrs:15: they don't work. Saw a crate Late Model race once, it was boring, only passing was done if car in front screwed up, wouldn't go again. Jim Hanks of Must see Racing did tire testing, the American Racer was a better tire than Hoosier so why are racing organizations mostly going w/ Hoosier?? :deadhorse:

The last thing sprint car racing needs is another class.

I saw that article, that’s mostly what D2 midget racing is doing. We have 305’s 360 410 already I think the midget deal fills whatever gap in budget side there is

Most places it doesn't work. That said, Wisconsin Wingless came out of box averaging 30 plus cars per race for the last few years without being dominated by one or two drivers !!

Ok so we have racesaver, crate class engines. Would they are be equal in speed, be able race together?

Lets see how much power that 'lil crate has when you hook the cushion at Kokomo and rip the fence down because you don't have the power to turn out of it.

Sprint cars are supposed to be the baddest SOB's and not for everyone. Plenty of different divisions now to race weekly. 410's should be the ONLY engine in sprints....

Lol I must be old. I saw AJ Floyt race a usac Sprint that had a 305 engine.
