Ysi should be at the same weight as the f1a.

 

Effective this Saturday ?

 

So I assume the Vortech guys can get the Ysi upgraded now as well? They offer a new billet impeller. We need something to keep up.

 

so not much is changed

can't wait to try my new "carb enclosure"

 

Can I run the Gt5580 at + 50 too ???

 

I think it's BS too Keesey!!!

 

At least they are attempting to make changes that support the class.

They could have waited till the offseason to make changes and then seen what happened in the springtime. But by the time every body's program was together in the spring time the season would be 1/2 way over....lol. At least with a change now they will have a better understanding on changes that can and will be addressed in the off season.

 

Dam I'm liking Dave's thinking. Can i lose the 100lbs added to me cause of Pevlor? 3000lbs sounds like figting weight for me

 

The spiral out of control has begun...

 

Dave, can the N/A guys get 50 lbs off?

 

Actually don't take weight off the Ysi, I still need a excuse for being slow! Lmao

 

Is the new goal to make US a 4.80 class?

 

Am not trying to make 4.80 class. The class needs to grow but also needs to stay close. Little tweaks here and there may be in order. We'll see how it works out.

 

personally i think the 5580 will be ok with the extra 50, 47 and 400 based units should each have 50 off respectively.
3100 cast 76
3150 billet 76
3200 cast 80
3250 55-80
i think would put it tighter, I (me) would like the 50 off boosted LS as well but i'll wait on that one to see if i have a chance of keeping up

Dont see that happing !!

I cant believe you said that Jace !! lol

 

+200 for Mike Barry.......

 

What the hell, why not !

 

lol -75 for Mike Barry

 

So why did they not pull the tire from the N/A cars during the year? They have won more races then any combo. One nitrous car runs crazey fast and we are talking rule changes..

 

what nitrous car ?

 

Guys I think Pevlor was light , he was in Nitrous x trim on that pass, they fucked with the run order and ran Ultimate when Pevlor was in the lanes for Nitrous X!

 

Don't know if you wanna go there as that opens up a shit storm.

If he was pulled from Nitrous X to run Ultimate and was light, then that's fucked up. How would you like to lose knowing the competitor you lost to was illegal. May have not been Shawn's fault, but...

Also, when he crossed the scales the run should have been thrown out if indeed he was light.

Now if he ran at race weight (what I'm hoping is true), then he simply has a bad hot rod.

 

I think a hundred lb weight break
For the smallest cubic inche motor in the class
Would be great !!!

 

What about the guys running for points??

 

Can I get 50 off for driving my car to the lanes and back after a pass?

 

Take another 50 off for RR 23* head since that combo hasn't been consistently in the 4s after the weight penalty. Let's speed this class up closer to X!

 

Thanks Jeff I'll take those 50 as well !!

 

Just so everyone understands John will have to add 150lbs to he's current weight to put this turbo on.t-80 is 3250 add 50 lbs gt5580. John will have to weight in at 3300lbs.

 

Dave,

Ill be sitting this one out after going to almost every Cecil ultra race in the last 2 1/2 years. The current 80mm turbo can't compete with the 5580 turbo + 50lbs and the F1C'ish +50 lbs. The current 80mm turbo would need -150lbs to be competitive with those. I got my doors blown off by a nitrous car in the Georgia finals that ran a 4.900, thats a whole other story.

 

Not for anything, but we will be there saturday weather permitting, guns blazing. Was it fair when earlier this year that our combo (23* non rr) was hit with 50lb? Of course not, there's nobody flying with that combo (thats a cecil regular anyway) but it got hit, and we still show up to race. This class will surely not last long with every person trying to lobby an advantage for their own personal combo. Sorry, that's the way I see it despite anyone wanting to admit it or not.

 

Wait Wait................ we agree on something?.?.? I truly don't know what brought this rule change on. the blower was illegal all year someone buys one and runs it anyway then its legal ..

 

IF AT CECIL COUNTY DRAGWAY'S SOLE DISCRETION A COMBINATION HAS A PERFORMANCE ADVANTAGE THE RULES
WILL BE CHANGED IN ORDER TO KEEP PARITY IN THE CLASS.

 

Just wondering what combination has had the advantage? Dont understand how a blower that was not allowed in from the beginning is now in.....and with a 50lb hit? And then letting a turbo back in that was banned because it was running faster then what the intent of the class was from the start.

What happen small changes? Keeping things in check not opening up rules...and have tec look for ram air/frontal air..openings in air stream..with blowers and turbos.
Good luck to everyone involved.

 

I'm to slow to have a dog in the fight. However I am a little disappointed to see changes being made to speed guys up to hang with other combos instead of slowing the faster combo down. I really hate to see this be a 4.90 class when the original intentions were a 5.teen class. Eventually I will be in the teens but a .0 or a .90 is never going to happen.

I can however see where Rob and John are coming from. I can understand how frustrating it would be to put all the time and money into there operation and still be a tenth behind.

Hopefully Dave is trying to use these last two races to get a feel where everybody will be at next year so he can make the adjustments. Good luck to everybody this weekend wish I could make it.

 

Why does everyone think weight is the only way to control the ET of a car?

 

......it's ok Todd, you can still race Ultra next year...........
