So the Rules for the CRT Ten O Shootout will now be a .500 Pro Tree

I have been saying this for years. But others thought they knew better. This was how it was the first year, and that started interest in the class. 
Good luck getting people to come back.

Oh yeah I forgot, I can't wait to hear all the cry babies now complaining about the use of delay boxes. 
I'll give credit where it's due and thats to anyone that can slow an 8 second car or faster to 10.0 with any control,foot,mechanical or electrical.And as far as any rules,I think the racers and sponsers who partisipate and support the series should be the ones who decide.It should be up to CRT and the 10.0 racers to agree.It certainly is a riot to watch that race.  and I don't see it losing any steam,more of the BGR racers are taking interest also.

Outstanding!!! This will definitely level the playing field. I love the rule change. We definitely had a great field of cars but the tube chassis cars had the advantage. I think I may have been the only stock framerail car left at 5 cars and believe me it took some trickery to get on the bulb.

440Jim thank you for the I told you so. We where 36 entrys strong with this past event. Had over 40 at Norwalk to end last year.With the .400 pro tree. So with the rule chance we should double the field right??
Thanks for the acknowlagement.
I think with the right rules, you should be able to attract all your Pro class that can run 10.0-quicker, plus all your Super Pro class that can run 10.0-quicker. The concept is terrific, and the racers are already attending the event, plus any new market share.
But it won't happen in 1 event. It will take years to earn that market share. And the economy isn't booming, yet...

"mechanical or electrical"?? I guess I'am confussed? do you mean like a throttle stop? thought we couldn't use them ? I had a hard enough time slowing down from mid 9's. how do you do it from the 8's ??? 
I put a grease fitting on the piviot point of the gas petal to keep it from catching fire from being on and off the trottle and got to race Eric in the semis, I also agree this is a needed rule change to help level the field for the heavier cars. It is extremly hard to slow down an 8 secound car to 10.00, more luck than cents, but a lot of fun trying. Big Dog

its nice to see after i( me personally and pretty much alone) said last year it should be a .500 tree that now everybody thinks it suddenly is a great idea, after whipping me like a dog for saying it...it was .500 to begin with and never should have been changed in the first place.... by the time i get another car hopefully its still the same as it is now

Now everyone knows why the rule was really changed.
The reasons I listed above where just a cover up.
read much, eddie??????
i said i was glad it got changed
i also said it was too bad it ever got changed from the 500 tree the class originally started out as in the first place, waqy back when the class was started...you are aware it started out as a 500 tree class, arent you??..if i am not mistaken that might have been before you were ever involved with it
