Cool

Hey this just a idea.
We run all winter 17.5, why we don't run in the summer 13.5 ?
The track is bigger to do 13.5 with no problem and is something deferent to run.
Plus run 13.5 now is good for the 17.5 motor to take a rest.
I like the speed and for me is fun C the car going fast plus I tired C the car going with 17.5. I working in my T3 to start practice Mod that is fun !

Pedro - i think there are a TON of us that should only be running 13.5 (or mod) outdoors but that doesn't mean 13.5 should be the slowest class outside. we will still have a 17.5 class.

Yes about the 17.5 class but I think that
A lot of us we big boys to still run 17.5 plus
How we go to get faster running 17.5 ? What
Class the faster guys in this hobby run ? There
Run 13.5 and Mod. Lol lol.
I don't say that I one of this guys but one day
When I big I want be fast like that guys. Lol lol
At 360 we was running 17.5 for amateur and 13.5
For people that was faster. I was running 15.5 lol lol
So I think that can be a good think to do. Plus I know some
Team driver can't run 17.5 class in big races or in club races because
There R to fast to run that class and the new people never will run
In a 17.5 A main because is fuel with all the faster guys. Lol lol
In the way I be thinking for long time is 17.5 is a class to star in the hobby
Or for people still time to get better on driving and set up and 13.5 and Mod is
For people pass that already. Hey that is the way I be thinking for long time.

I would like to be running 17.5 when I race there.
Assuming more speed will not yield success for me.

I would be willing to give 13.5 a shot maybe later in the year...(it will just be a bit
before I can buy a motor or two).

That being said..I also want to try and run with the same bunch of guys I have at Horsham. Although intimidating at 1st... Running with the fast guys has absolutely been helping me get up to speed faster. So if everyone jumps to 13.5 for the summer...I would guess it's in my benefit to do so as well.

Well you all were running D3.5 not that long ago, and they are about as fast as most 13.5s, so you should have no problem adjusting

True, there is also nothing stopping you from running a 17.5 in the 13.5 heat as long as you're not terribly slow, then I imagine you might get punted

Competition is competition guys. If we can keep the turn outs up at Jackson then we will easily be able to run two TC classes. We won't turn folks away (aside from 4+ make a class) but it doesn't make sense go have two classes with 4 cars each.

Summer at Jackson is a great place to push your own personal racong limits. Just watch out for the back straight wall. Home of "oh no - not again!"
