mimispeed you need to get your facts straight. I worked for AMSA for years and 2 cars motor were checked weekly.Random pick. Safety checks were done quietly and without fanfare. We got a lot of grief from some when it was pointed out the rules. Also the DQ at Lawrenceburg The Driver told us not to send fuel to be tested because he knew it wouldn't pass.

They been doing that same thing for years a lot of the time there is "malice intent" by the overtaking driver.

So they DQ us because we run battle bars that stick out beyond the rear tire when we pull the tire all the way in. That would have been a non wreck with 4 point bars with the outside bar even with the outside the tire, much much more safer set up.

So what is the reason for writing the rule the way it is now. Why don't USAC and other open wheel groups use this rule???

Can anyone give me a reasonable answer, other than that is how we always done it.

I guess by no direct response Mr. Striker the answer to your request would be no, Why don't you offer an added weight incentive to kinda of sweeten the deal sure would like to see you guys race with us, but taking that Midget purse shouldn't be that bad.

Trust me them old "Hench" and "Foz" cars don't want anything to do with you with or without a "BUILT" motor.

MMSA doesn't have a book they are doing good to have a page and+++++++"THAT IS A GOOD THING". Some racers race to win with the rule book. Bill like everybody else got a little "BMW Fobia" this year but hopefully he will get over it. Keep the motors stock, keep them new 1 or 2 years old and you got what we always had good cheap racing.


The unfortunate thing is there has always been a horsepower race between the Orienttal bikes but them darned Dutch came at it with a vengeance and the magazines wore the hype out writing how bad they were (translated money exchanging hands). Then we got into this continued wearing down of the "American Economic Engine" by people intent on putting us in our place. Couple that with high gas prices, a tsunami in Japan and a bunch of other racers in different type cars falling in love with our engines, low import numbers and low sales numbers and you get in our racing world what the rest of the American People are getting ready to experience "INFLATION"!
