Final TeX275 Rules

[bigminz]

Sounds like you guys are on top of it. Good to hear that. Is it my computer or what that doesn't allow me to see the website. I have tried from several different places???? So what you are saying is that no 55 wheel turbo will be allowed? If you are saying that, you probably need to adjust the rules. Is the turbo that is on the fastest ultra street car allowed in this class? GT4788 is a weak ass turbo compared to 36 pill on a nice motor. Remember a bigger, badder motor in a turbo car doesn't matter when you have a 4788 pushing it. You can make a BB make a damn good amount of power and then add 400+ more of bottle to it.

I am sure that you guys will get it figured out. I am not trying to stick my nose where it doesn't belong, but I don't want my friends to get cheated when they come out with a true gt4788 and the guy next to him has a modded 80 or 88. I am not going to race in the class until the supra motor is finished. Then you guys will see what a turbo can do under way better efficiency ranges.

Please read what I said. A 55 wheel is allowed on the 76 & 80. Not on a 88.

Bring out whatever combo you think can compete as long as you come out. I have already had long discussions about the turbo and small block nitrous rules. The best thing to do is to come out an prove us wrong.

Just so I'm clear, I can have Jose at Forced Inductions build me a Garrett GT55-80 turbo with a cast wheel, only have to weigh 3250, and come race the limited class?

[OrangeChevyII]

No.

Yes.

Maybe.

[jason07]

No.

Yes.

Maybe.

HAHA seems about right.

[OrangeChevyII]

No pun inteneded, just trying to ease the atmosphere. Lots of testosterone being elevated.

I'm glad I'm not on the rules committee. Them poor guys are taking a pounding. I'm sure they will get it figured out. There is still plenty of time till the start of the season but yes I do agree, the BBC pill vs turbo limitations seems to favor a BBC nitrous now. Just my opinion.

BBC Nitrous is favored????????

That my friend, is blasphemy!!

The BBC is something holy.

I didn't know you sold turbos. How much is a GT55-80 cast wheel?

I will pm you.

I see it in this order.
1) BBNOS
2) F1c
3) gt5580

Should all be close but the nitrous cars have a lot more data.

To all that say this is favored towards BBC will you please explain. I see it being pretty even so far off old passes these being on a .036 pill bbc 5.0xx, sbf nitrous 5.0xx, sbc nitrous 5.0xx. So how is that favored towards BBC. Yes it's the turbo guys saying it's not even but yet the same turbo allowed in limited class has been 4.9xxx can the nitrous cars get into the 4.9xx range yes I think so. Are the rules 100% perfect no. So to the turbo guys wanting to run the limited class what should we do allow y'all in at about 3000lbs? Will that make it far to y'all or will you need more weight off then, or should we put nitrous cars on a .028 pill? Just trying to figure out what should go on since we are unfair on the turbo rules.

Derek, settle down man. Most of us are just trying to give you and John hell at this point. It's all fun, no reason to show anger. Hell, the combination with the most potential is the F1c. It's been in the 90's at 3300lbs two years ago.

I think the rules are doable for the time being with the exception of the 3400 lbs on the GT4788. I think that's an insane amount of weight for that turbo. I feel at 3250 that turbo can go 4.90's-5.00. At that weight, you're looking at 5.10-5.20's.

I am still running the S480 regardless, so I have no dog in the previous mentioned statement.

I will be lucky to run 5.20's as I sit.

What I don't want to see is one car running .80's a couple cars running .90's and then the rest running .10's-40's. That would suck.
