I was listening to the competition meeting when they brought up the weight rule. Soooo, you have to add weight to make the minimum. You also spend thousands on titanium bolts and carbon fiber seats and carbon fiber panels. Isn't that the idea of a weight rule? So you don't spend crazy money. Rule of thumb is for every pound you need to lose it will cost you $100. So that means USAC just cost every person that did not have to add weight $2500. There are only a few drivers that have to add weight and of coarse it is their top teams. You know, the ones with enough money to buy titanium and carbon fiber needlessly.
