Not that im in stock class anymore so its moot for me but I never understood the 100 pound thing anyway. Its an absolute number so it helps the lighter cars on a % basis and it encourages everybody to go prepared so in a couple of years everybody is right back where you started except now everybody has spent tons of money for the rest of the prepared mods to be competitive at the next class up. Nobody would have stayed in the stock class as they would be competing against lighter cars with built motors and big brakes etc... I know this has all be hashed to death so Ill move on...
Right now, it is pretty easy to go back and forth with the same car between Prepared and Stock, and I think the Prepared rules don't necessarily have to guarantee that any stock car is competitive bumping up a class in Prepared trim. You just have to be smart and play were your car is the most competitive (stock or Prep)

Again, I was not against that proposed rule. I was just going to be very very surprised if it passed. But I may have gone to Prepared F if it had.
I suspect they'll take a hard look at how competitive "Prepared" cars are in 2010 and maybe revisit it again. But as Brian has argued, I think they'll find that for the most part, Prepared cars (and drivers) are competitive already (damn, look at Doug R. and Doug C.). What they really ought to do is adjust the minimum weights of some cars that are historically NOT competitive... but that's another discussion for another thread...
As far as the rolling diameter rule goes, I'm going to predict "no go" on that one too. Although I wouldn't be upset if that one passed either!!

I am happy they did pass the carpet removal but it seems silly to still leave the rear side pannels
and pannel below the rear window most have holes thru them for the cage anyway it would
make the interior more eye pleasing to have a nice clean painted interior. Palmer

Any idea when the full rule changes will be posted? It sounds like the decisions have been made.
