Only 3 nights for speedweek.. Might need to reevaluate if it's worth the travel.

Really? How can there be a validation for 2 midget classes in the same sanctioning body then??? Running a stock block, head, & crankshaft (no matter what they came off of, just as long as they are OEM and = 2.4Ls) makes that much of a difference to people???

Bad move..Unless there is something that will restrict the Badger engines.in all fairness.. We should wait until the rules are released.

Why would they be screwed? they are mini sprints, there’s already been classes for those guys. They could run the Usac shows. As far as I know their rules haven’t changed.

I'm thinking they are already there, or real close, so are the Mini Sprints, if you want to really be in the hunt, JMHO! Bob

IMRA-legal Ecotecs have performed well in Badger shows, and in both IMRA and USAC MTM races it's always been a fair fight between the Chains and the Shafts; just because you "can" doesn't mean you "have to", and setup and skill are always premium assets...
