Why is there tech in just one class ?
Why is there not tech in all classes ?
Can I create a new "no tech" class , like TC spec or GB truck ?
Any one up for 21.5 Touring class ?
With the slow death of onroad racing , sad to see it unfold right in front of your eyes ,here at JMR !

Hi Ray,

I was informed there would be tech for all classes (Please see the event thread: King of the Parking Lot @ JMR). I think Clayton just specified USGT because there have been known issues in that class all year, and really the past 2-3 years. Not sure why we keep having these issues, but it seems we do and unfortunately there seem to be new things popping up every so often. What John and Clayton are doing will help maintain structure. If the cheating is allowed to continue, the racing will die off even quicker.

Anyway, I hope everyone that decides to attend will have a good time. I wish I could be there, the newest USGT bodies look amazing and it seems they also perform very well also. But, I have family obligations so unfortunately I will miss it.

If there are any issues in other classes they will be teched. Tech shouldn’t be a determining factor of your satisfaction in race program. Cars should always pass tech whether it’s being run or not. When you have your own track you can create which ever classes you want AND choose to ignore rules because it would be your choice. Just like it’s your choice to attend or not attend, but trying to disparage a race because there’s going to be tech for a specific class does not help the sport in any way. If YOU would like to help run tech for the other classes then let John or I know. I’m a racer like yourself and would like to have fun like everyone else.

With this race not being a normal club race. Wondering about any house rule beyond the normal tire rules for USGT?
not trying to stir the pot here... don’t race every weekend & the tires that I own are all worn pretty well. Just like to know if new tires will be needed for this race
Like to ask this question once again now.
Thanks!

Easy chef88... you may have missed the entry costs... I see you signed up for 3 classes. $30 first class $15 Second class... no mention of the cost of a 3rd class... $10?

you are up to $55 in entries. and you are adding $25 for new tires? for a race with low attendance? recalculating...

Guys, it really doesn't matter!!! Here is the run down no matter if we have tech or not....

USGT => RayK will win unless he decides to run spec. Manny second...and Arvin if he shows 3rd. Yep I said it!!!!
Spec => Sam by a lap. Gee second and Craig 3rd. Danny would get 2nd but he will hit something and pull off...sorry Danny you my man but it's true.
F1 => Jamie 1st if he runs, Deebo second if he runs and Manny 3rd if he runs....would probably be the best race of the day but these guys are unreliable at best when it comes to showing up to race.
GB Truck => Fun class

Ray, Manny and Arvin are top notch drivers but to leave Clayton out is just appalling.

Deebo on the podium in F1! Teach that tells me right there that you have not been paying attention to the F1 races

It's all love D3. Hope you can make the race
