NickHolt Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 Y'all are too funny! Hey, it's Thanksgiving, let's just be thankful we have a place to race and quit with the bickering in public. Bicker in private.. LOL Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flyin34 Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 How about a new class? You guys can keep your 4 car class and race tires. Call it Hobby. G60's and model it around the Shootout rules. There are metal body cars sitting around that can run this class. Yall stay happy with your follow the leader racing and also get to grow a class that will bring exciting racing back to CC Speedway. Everyone wins! Bam! Genious! LOL.... If the track opens...

arob Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 That is what we are trying to do mini. Greg may have stumbled across something.The 4 cars can keep their slicks and become late models.Do the Street Stock Shootout rules and G-60's class and look out.I would love to see what Jones ,Danielson Schlott etc would do at CCS. Yes , I am a diehard dirt fan now but was raised on 40 years of CCS.Most of us were.The track is special.But Dan can't survive with classes with 5 cars in them.I still think both tracks can survive.But face it the cars are at the dirt tracks and it is no different at CTS either with CBS in the area.CTS went to an 8 race season which seems weak to me. Would CCS survive with an 8 race schedule?I doubt it.I've seen 3 dirt guys say there would run CCS on G-60s.Heck that is doubling your field! If CCS closes what are you guys going to do?You really only have three choices . One is good , one is not exciting and the other one is bad.CCS needs cars and they have to change to get them.Can't go on with 25 cars in the pits and 1/2 of them in one class on race night.

TheCloser Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 G60s would be great. What good are slicks against 4 cars.... plus we wouldn't even be in this situation if the racers of Corpus Christi would have worked together. Now we are in jeopardy of losing another track. The oldest operational asphalt track in Texas. Oh well. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arob Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 I don't think it is the racers or anyone or group in particular. It is one track is more fun to race than the other right now.It can be done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flyin34 Posted November 27, 2013 Report Share Posted November 27, 2013 Cody, I think you get what Im saying. 20 cars had complete control of their cars on street tires. And there was good racing. Tore up about as much as got tore up this year with 4 or 5 cars... SA is gone...hope not CC. Better change now or you ain't gonna have a choice but to run g60's....ON DIRT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nesloney Posted November 27, 2013 Report Share Posted November 27, 2013 Interesting. My brother Donny and I are building a metric car currently. We have hopes for running asphalt in CC. I'd hate to throw my 2 cents in considering we have not been around for a while, but then again why else respond. It's mostly been said already......So I like what Greg is saying. I like what Bobby is saying. Thanks All Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thumper Posted November 27, 2013 Report Share Posted November 27, 2013 Just want to add of course all CCS cars are inmvited to enter the shootout at your neighbors.I think the Super Streets are the Street stocks,Bombers like the Pure Stocks Frontrunners to the Sport Compacts and the Sport Mods are the same everywhere.Im not sure about everyones rules but Sport Compacts are inviting any and all 4 cyl or eco stock 6 cyl cars without any changes needed.Great oppourtunity to blend.No politics,just racing.Hope to see you all there.

arob Posted November 27, 2013 Report Share Posted November 27, 2013 And if you are not racing at least come and watch.It is a great event with probably around 200 cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamDuncan Posted November 27, 2013 Report Share Posted November 27, 2013 Well there was 20+ street stocks at sas for every race this year. If everyone would get off the computer and start working on y'all's cars maybe we would have cars on the track. Quit crying. The tires are Hoosier slicks. Matt you bought a car that wasn't legal to race at CCS and then say people are crying ! Everyone needs to support their local tracks or don't complain when they shut down. It gets old hearing BS from people who sit in the stands , drink and talk crap instead of racing and helping solve a problem not be part of it !

stevenmacc Posted December 4, 2013 Report Share Posted December 4, 2013 How about this idea......, adopt the Shoot out rules, current super streets become limited latemodels, get together with Owen and come up with a schedule that doesn't conflict with either track, and the on top of each tracks season championships, have a combined champion crowned from the pool of drivers that regularly both tracks during the season. you've got 2 tracks right now running on the same nights trying to pull competitors and fans from the same pool and that just doesn't make any sense. I would go as far as move CCS to Friday nights, to make it easier to run both tracks. We ran both asphalt and dirt with the same car car in 92 in AZ, the tracks ran on opposite weekends so we were racing every week. It took about 2 hours to switch the car over from one to the other and damn near won the championship at both tracks, it can be done! I like going to races at both tracks, and would like to continue doing so, I would hate for a track with as much history as CCS shut down.

arob Posted December 4, 2013 Report Share Posted December 4, 2013 Agree CCS can not run the same night as STS.Agree is the current SS's keep their slicks the become LLM's.Agree with using Shoot out rules. Don't agree with CCS running on Friday.To be blunt CCS has to work with or work around STS.There really is no competition between the two.CCS cannot compete head to head with STS.And that is everywhere as dirt racing has pretty much taken over.If CBS gets going good CTS will be history soon.That being said I still think Corpus is in a good position to run two tracks. I know this will never happen but for that to be done right the same guy will have to promote both tracks.But think about how awesome that would be. CCS was rockin a few years back.STS is rockin now.Could be combined point systems and point funds.Could be a lot of new things where racers and fans both would be the winners.It would take a special promoter to pull that off and I think there is one here.But I'm not sure he is crazy enough to make this crazy dream come true.

railer Posted December 5, 2013 Report Share Posted December 5, 2013 I don't think no one know what a LLM is unless you had one , what to do to a SS to get to a LLM ,much , much change to a SS ,cuz I did it before ,and still own A LLM,,, just because you put slicks on a SS becomes a LLM ,I don't think so.. the SS 3400 lbs with max penalties ,, LLM right how about 2600 to 2800 lbs Max. So the street stocks that run at STS if you put slicks on them they become a LLM ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nowrench Posted December 5, 2013 Report Share Posted December 5, 2013 Also cc ss have a 55% left side weight penalty and a base weight of 3300 lbs plus penalties the sts street stocks have no left side % and a base weight of 3100 lbs before penalties so who really has the disavantage here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
