And to everybody that complains about stock class rules...... just saddle up and run mod!

I run both classes as often as I can and 17.5 has better racing and closer finishes then modbclass thats why I enjoy it so much !

This is by far one of the best tracks on the west coast bar none! Lets see a bunch of out of state racers make the trip!

Im from Washinton and not Oregon, but am serious about attending. Travel is no issue to me, did it for years crawling. The travel and new people is what makes it great.
The 3.5 while ran a lot up here is not the sole winner of races locally. Illegal or not its whats currently in my truck/buggy till the NW showdown is over in April. At that point I will have reason to swap stuff out.

Hope to be there.

Cheers, Jason.

I personally don't know a single person locally running that motor...That's a lot of people instantly at a dis-advantage.

half a dozen of 1, 6 of the other.

I can assure you there is no big difference between the D3.5 and say schurr speed, or the orca why its not legal I have no idea...

Its looking like Mikey Brown, Greg Jones and I will make the trip. If its truly an issue I will switch out my D3.5's. I know Greg and I both are currently running them in our stock sc's and stock buggys.
LMK.

Cheers, Jason G.

Looks like a cool race. I thinking of coming down. What is the weather like at the end of march there? I don't have snow tires so that is why I ask.

The weather in March should be no snow down here, but we have had a weird winter with alot more snow them normal, but I am thinking March will be 45 degree plus weather.
