Title: IF YOU LOSE IT ON THE TRACK
Post by JOHNSON MOTORSPORTS 1 on 08/22/06 at 4:42pm

FROM WHAT IVAN HAS SAID ABOUT THIS ISSUE IS HE IS TIRED OF EVERYONE LOSING BUMPERS AND DOORS. SO THE NEW RULE IS IF U LOSE ANYTHING ON THE TRACK U WILL BE BLACK FLAGED.

I THINK IF U LOSE A BUMPER THEN MAYBE BECUASE THERE SUPPOSE TO BE CHAINED ON TO THE FRAME ANYWAYS SO U SHOULDNT LOST THOSE BUT OTHER STUFF COME ON THE TRACK IS ROUGH THERE IS CONTACT AND YOUR GOING TO LOSE STUFF NO MATTER WHAT SO I THINK THIS IS A BAD RULE.

WHAT DOES EVERYONE THINK ABOUT THIS???

lead and bumpers black flagged. I hate racing with someone without a rear bumper. I feel like im gonna blow them up if I hit them.

i thought he said if you lose a door or deck lid ect. they will throw the caution and you will be credited with it. 2 and you are done.

That is right if you loose something and it brings out the caution you will be sent to the back.

Unless it is weight (lead) then you will be black flaged for that event.

If you lose bumpers you should be 86d

if you loose anything you should be black flagged and so should the person who caused you to loose it for rough driving cause any part lost could cause some major problems on the track and if you loose a hood pin or two shouldnt be a big deal hoods have 4 pins i finished with my trunk lid open one night

What I have told all the Western Allstar guys is, if you lose a muffler, you are black flagged for that race. If you lose a piece of lead, you are done for the night! If you can't mount your lead good enough in your shop, then you will never be able to mount it good enough at a dark race track while rushing. So your night is over.

A piece of lead flying down the track could kill someone, so that rule should really apply to everyone, everywhere.
