Better racing for the fans in my opinion!

P.S. No USAC races have been with big or small motors.... they have been won with big and small ENGINES!!! It would take an extremely long extension cord to run the big tracks! lol
Good Luck trying to convince peeps you do not need a gazillion cubic inches to WIN ... LOLLLLL !!!!!!

Lol! Well, then what is 'motor oil' and how about 'motor plates' and 'motor mounts'?

Why stop at 18"? Why not go 20 or 22? and put wings on. Oh yeah, that's been done before. I've seen what that racing's like. DT-3 compound sucked but wider is not better #20... unless you're in the # 20. What about the left rear? They cost just as much and there should be a rule on them too.

I'm pretty happy to be running a better right rear, the DT3 was garbage.
