Does anyone find it funny that the 2.6 class can run big or bigger chargers than the super street class? Bushings in the small classes but not in the big classes. I think they have that a little backwards don't you think?
 
I think alot of it comes from the goofy 2.6 rules that several of the organizations have been using.
 
I think its Scheids way of saying that they will find a way to win.
 
I think busings in 2.6 should be illegal in all organizations, but that is just me.

Yep...

On another note, I don't think there should be any difference in rules regarding bushings or stepped covers. If one is allowed the other should be as well. They accomplish the same thing but one route is much cheaper.

Yes I agree, stepped covers or bushings should be interchangeable.

I really think that scheid thought of the 2.6 rules that nadm allows and figured that they might as well allow the bushings.


As far as the 3.0 class that rule should be pushed in the 2.6 and smaller classes.

The 2.8 class has been a bushing class for years.
 
Why not take bushings out of everything. Pick your class to run 2.6, 2.8, or 3.0. 2.6 no water, oem driveline. 2.8 allow water, oem driveline. 3.0 water, open driveline. I think bushings should disappear all together, as well as stepped covers. Cause right now 2.6 really means 3.0 with a bushing. 2.6 should be 2.6.

Ya that is how I was meaning it. 2.6 don't allow cut intakes or dont, it don't matter. But if you do allow ag pumps and hand throttles in 2.8.
 
Sorry.. I'm still asleep this AM. I'll go back to the drag racing forums now and let Anthony get back to solving all of the problems of sledpulling LOL

If you could send my assistant UNBROKEN in I'm sure he can get everything straight. He's the man:umno: There are just to many different sets of rules out right now. I'm up for whatever as far as superstreet goes. But the 2.6 and 2.8 rules should really be checked out.
 
I think most Of the places that went the way of a bushing did it mostly for ease of tech, IMO.

The thing that is strange is that there is almost no seperation between 2.6 and 2.8. The only difference being 1. 2.8 allows AG pumps and 2. You don't have to use your factory fuel tank in 2.8. Other than that the rules are basically the same.

2.8 and 2.6 both have 1" travel in rear suspension. What's up with that? If you can run an AG pump, you should be allowed to block the rear suspension solid...IMO.
 
2.8 is solid , 3.0 is gay make it a unlimted single small twins
 
Joe: i see that on the 20th they updated the 2.8 rules. Last time I looked was before the update. Thanks
 
Anthony, maybe you should get out of pulling and start hopscotch. I think you will find the rules more to your liking there. :doh:

Uh.. Ok, they can run whatever rules they want. Doesn't make me any difference really. I just would like to hook there, but not being able to run a bushing will keep me from pulling cause of the turbo. But it is legal in the street class. Just doesn't add up. So Dalpilot with what you said, you think there is nothing that seems a little off with these rules??? Or did you just want to put your words in without knowing a single thing on what was being talked about? That seems like that fits a bit more. I guess now all we need is unbroken to come in and tell us what he thinks. Even though he does nothing competitive at all with his diesel. But anyhow, I just wanted others opinions cause it seemed a little odd to me. Can't wait to see the results. Good luck to all.
 
No Anthony, it seems to me that if you can't pull because of the rules, then perhaps you should make the changes necessary, instead of complaining about the rules. I am gonna go out on a limb here and say that there will be plenty of trucks that will be pulling in that class that fit the rules. Plain and simple, if you can't get compliant, don't ***** about it. Pull somewhere where your truck fits the rules. Not sure why that is such a hard concept to understand? You want to b!tch and moan about all the rules at X or Y pulls, yet miraculously a bunch of others will do whats necessary to pass tech?

As far as what Richard thinks, you'll have to ask Richard.

Stick to a single topic at a time Anthony. Trying to mix other topics in with the fact that you cannot pass tech doesn't make your argument hold any more credibility.
