The NEETS rules are fine the way they are but a couple of things should be different for an asphalt series if you run at WALL.
1. MIRRORS- I know this has been debated before but with new racing seats like mine with the headrests on either side its hard to see whats going on around you. Then you throw a red and you cant see if someones gonna drill you from behind. last, If you have to get off the track you cant see cars coming up behind you to safely get off.
2.SWAY BARS- rules say 1'' max. This might be good on dirt where alot of people dont even use a sway bar but on asphalt you need a bigger bar than that. With a 1" bar on asphalt the cars will be rolling over hard on there right sides burning up and chunking/blistering the tires. If you can run a bigger bar you will get more life out of a set of tires making it more affordable for everyone which will keep the car counts up.

The rules meeting is this weekend so I'm just throwing ideas out there being that I cant make it.

Losing that one lap cost me first place. Boy the way Ray managed and used that puddle in turn two you would have thought he put it there. He sure can drive.

I stopped behind you during one of the red flags and realized you started on the pole and I never passed you yet then a few laps later I finally got you on the outside in 3 and 4 but I couldnt shake you. That thing you drive is a rocketship:lol:

While I was chasing you, I watched you find the right line through the wet spot that launched us nicely after the wheel spin. I knew you where going to stay on thet line so I tried the inside. I just couldnt get the wheels to hook up because the wetted surface area was too long there. Great race.

Congrats on another win ray, it must suck winning all the time huh!! Are you going to the November race? What happened to the 36ny, I though he would have had a higher finish.

Hey Pit bull, was it nice racing at a track where people are'nt deliberlitly trying to dump you!! Congrates to you also on a great day.

I just watched the video. I dont believe I lapped Ray at all. Im pretty sure you won reguardless of my lost lap.

According to the score sheets, you finished on the same lap as Ray. So you must have passed him sometime during the race since there was one lap deducted for jumping the start.

It's my turn to complain. Where are the My Laps results?

I dont know what the score sheets said but steve never passed me. I watched the video also and I passed him on the outside when he was held up by a lapped car then he was glued to my back bumper the rest of the way. NeetsSpectator mounted 3 cameras on my car, one on the roof facing forward one facing back and one inside the car I had the win even without the one lap penalty to steve. Good run at mountain also Steve,congrats.

I could have sworn I passed him once between 3 and four while he was on the out side but there was another car like his I might have been confused with. Hats off, great race.
