If we are to stay stock appearing driveline. I think that limiting the single turbo is a good idea. 3" single classes are drawing a good amount of trucks and is about the limit of the power one can put to stock appearing driveline IMHO. Also I think that is basicly what most of us are running already.about the 2010 rules. there will be a short meeting at Bloomsburg on October 3 in the afternoon to discuss the rules. FPP wants next year's rules to reflect the desires of 75-90% of the 2009 USA-EAST members. those are individuals that drive the class and those are the folks that we want to satisfy on a yearly basis.
my personal view is that moving to an 'open driveline rule' will ruin the class and end the progress that we have made. i look at NTPA/PPL/ECS and see 4-6 'open driveline' trucks in the class and this will NOT fly with the FPP clients.
the issue of 'radiator in the bed' is a weight issue - nothing more.
IF you want to use the radiator in the bed as your cooling radiator - just put another radiator in the normal position - filled with coolant - and you will pass tech without an issue. there are already a couple of pullers doing just that.
