im pretty sure that those rules were applied for jackson lightning sprint races. Not for the usac hpd series. I can double check and post on here. The members did vote on the american racer rr rule as well as the no alcohol rule. The rule on big scheduled event was to try to keep cars from coming in for one race and never coming back. Track owners are doing their best to keep the cost down and still enjoy racing. I dont disagree with trying to keep the big hogged out motors from making their way to the track. Many of the guys all had stock 1000 and wanted to keep everyone on a even playing field.. Hope this helps some. Some like the rule and some may not.
