racer027 Posted June 30, 2013 Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 Like everyone says we are fast to complain about things now i want to commend the track on the good. I would like to let everyone know that S.O.S. has made a great step in keeping the purestock rules equal and fair. Several racers had expressed concern of how they felt rules was being stretched in this class and not being teched to keep from ruining class,however keith had checked cam lift and a car was found to be illegal.This is a start in right direction due to several cars not wanting to have to spend more money to try and be competative and cheat to race. This class had lost several cars that felt they would stop racing due to not being competative i would like to let everyone know that this track is doing what they can to keep this class alive. Due to find, i would like to invite all purestock cars back to track and start having fun again and come join S.O.S. IN RACING AGAIN WITH PURESTOCK several people asked for cams to be checked and money was put forward and track asked not for racers to spend their money to find if cams are legal they would check cars on their own to determine if cams legal or not this was done the cam lift rule is 450 lift max. So lets support this track in their finding THE best we can. I choose to write this due to fact that i do get on here and voice my opinion when i feel needed so i feel this is needed now. THANKS KEITH and S.O.S. YOU are doing what you said.. Also cooter that was great race you drove the wheels of that car the next race after flipping good to see you run strong..

tuskhunter Posted June 30, 2013 Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 Way to go SOS, it's been along time coming especially after the discussion of the last race. The 2013 Pure Stock Class is growing strong and will continue. Keep up the good work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cooter48c Posted June 30, 2013 Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 ...Also cooter that was great race you drove the wheels of that car the next race after flipping good to see you run strong.. Thanks Dewey, I was just trying to continue what I started last race, before the roll over, car felt good. I understand why several of the driver felt they should set out last night, but I am looking forward to them being back and have some close racing. I believe there are several cars in the class that are winners, and that's what makes it so much fun to bring your car out and compete. I know one night it will be my turn to take the checker flag and would like to do it with a full field of cars, we all have personal goals , and I'll admit mine is to race #9 as hard as I can, and hopefully come out the winner, just because I helped him build the car, and I know he is a hard driver, just like he and his cousin #33 have a friendly competitive thing going on between them. The track was great last night and I also commend SOS for checking to make sure everyone is following the rules of the class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racer027 Posted June 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 Lol...who was illegal? that was reply from tech and from owner of track that #32 declared sts rules and lift was 480 lift and car would not be allowed back for points night racing unless cam was re teched and was 450 lift rule only allowed for non points races if you were told different sorry if this statement was incorrect..

I should have caught the drift about it being a set up on tech...the other cars sit out so they dontbhave to go thru tech...lol.. And yes i declared sts rules and passed tech with them....i do not run for points anyway. It also says that any racer can run any track rules for no points. Anyways if I knew all this would have caused an issue and so much complaining i would have just stayed home. Also I have been putting up more money that I do not have to help build class.

There are cars with more horsepower and more straight away speed then yours Daniel.. they just don't know how to make the turn.. if they can ever figure out how to drive "around" cars instead of "through" cars they would do a lot better..

tuskhunter Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 Okay the rules read out of area driver, which I would interpretate someone not local to the area. I was there when your motor builder swore up and down your motor was legal for SOS. Why run bigger cam? I have been told several times that 32 could beat me hands down by the driver and the motor builder because of there experience, then why in gods name would you run a cam that's not legal for that track.

kwhardage Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 From SOS rulebook: "Out of area vehicles will be allowed to run in the class it most qualifies for. They will be teched by their home track rules. Be sure you bring a copy of your rules for our tech man to use" From STS rulebook: "V8's must pull vacuum no less than 15 at 1000 rpm" Nothing about lift. Following the rules. He can't earn points, but is not outside of the rule book. I've watched that car run, and it gets through the corners better than any other car out there. A camshaft doesn't get you through the corner. I do find it funny that a few of the other cars had something come up on the night they decided to tech that class.

kwhardage Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 What's your definition of out of the area vehicle , the car has been racing SOS for the majority of its life I didn't write the rule book, so my definition doesn't matter. He's about half way between the 2 tracks, so that one can go either way. That's going to be an issue as long as you have mediocre car counts and have to rely on other area cars to make a class. All I'm saying is the cam isn't making that difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
