I'm glad I read through the rules. I just noticed that 2.5 trucks had to have the cross bolts in the exhaust if no cat. I don't really want to put bolts in my exhaust but "why not".

it's too bad this rule isn't made for the 2.6 class also. It would keep those guys with 2.8 and 3.0 chargers from ruining the class.

I bet there is like 5 trucks that run a true 2.6 truck in the country. everyone switched, I cried about it last year. obviously you have to cheat with them to compete.. so just do it.:rules:

TS required wheel protrusion. Supposedly Scheid will require it this year also.

Well what about the HX82 that your run on yours?

I am looking at an HX82.1 for mine.
Click to expand...

If a step cover is allowed why is it cheating no matter how big it is. I am building a new charger for scheids it will be a HX82.4 with a 1/8" protrusion I will run it in the 2.6 class with huge rpm's can't wait see ya there.
