I applaud Casey for this decision. I have 2 pretty much brand new sprint cars in the garage, without the new mods. I will probably make the changes before the season, but it will cost me, I'm guessing, 200-300 for the changes plus $500 in powder coat. So for 2 cars I am looking at about 1500 to update. I will survive, it will probably cost me 1 race night, as my budget is finite. But for the guy trying to get into the sport, it my cost him half his season. When I was new, every little new rule change made me miss races. I buy a car, get it together and I am all set to go race. Wing rule change. I now need to buy a new wing $500. A month later I finally have a new wing, oh wait bad weather. Have to work weekends for 2 months. Finally get to race. Wrong gears. Spend more money. work Weekends for 3 more weeks. Iffy weather, tow 300 miles, race cancelled, damn $250 diesel bill for nothing. It's easy to spend other peoples money, but don't ***** about car counts when you do. tire rule changes have probably cost me 10k over the cost of my career. Who has 10 k to throw away? Not me. Thank you Casey, for thinking of the guys like me.
