I'll give you some facts.

This D2 crap is just a spin off of what the ILLINI, UMARA SPORTSMAN, series was doing for more than 20 years.
But some people think they knew how to make it "better"

Makes me laugh when I hear people say the golden answer is go smaller and harder with the tires. Kinda like what they had? 8" D.O.T. tires.

Thier old rules worked great, ANY engine was legal to run.
Thier restrictor package ALONG WITH the hard smaller tires people are asking for worked as a good equalizer.

The cheapest way to go race is to not have to go out and buy a new engine package, and tires every week.

But it all went down the sh$t tube when people cried about not having a "real" race tire. Then this D2 insanity started and they changed thier rules to try to help uniformity. That's when the series tanked, went from averaging 20 cars a weekend to 6-8 cars.

Pretty sure poweri realized that badger's rules were way easier and faster to tech and anyone who has raced with those guys knows there is lot less crying going on up there.

Badger is doing thier own completely different deal, shouldn't even be discussed in the same sentence as any D2 club.

D2 needs to go back to something simular to what the ILLINI rules used to be. It was THE cheapest way to race week in and week out. That is what you D2 guys really want right?

But keep crying and asking for rules to fit your agenda. Pretty soon things will go back to the way it used to be, shut up and run what ya brung. Seems like that works pretty well at the chilli bowl. Or better yet we'll all have no place to race anymore, we can sit at home and Irace, or whatever the hel* the snowflakes call it.
