ohh do i love watching heads up madness u get a little bit of every thing,it will be just what i need to hold me over for next weekend.
derek did the give the small block cars a weight break yet.i think its still alittle funny to have the small block cars weigh 3100pounds one year then make them 3200 for the next year and not add weight to the big block guys.
just a little fucked up!

no weight break yet, still pushing for it though. if I can get enough people to agree it should go through... They need to do something, cause it's not easy competing with 600+ ci plus the bottle with my lil ol motor...

i do agree that they need to setup a better weight system then what they have now.they pretty much made it where who ever has the most money will win the race.the little guys on a budget dont have the money to go buy a 632ci engine with 12 or 14 degree heads and 2 stages of juice.i've been looking into turbos but i'm sure soon as soom one shows up with a twin turbo small block or a single turbo big block all the big block guys will be screaming no fair add more weight to him.

The 88mm will probably work better for you in the 1/8th anyway, it'll spool up quicker, etc..
