Penalties For Tire Tampering- REVOLUTION Super Late Model Series

[Jimmy Henry]

Policing tires are going to be the backbone of this series.
Make no mistake, we are very serious about tire tampering and this series will only be as good as its teching.

Racers, since this is YOUR series, what are appropriate penalties for tire rules infractions?

Thanks,

so... what tracks?

[onlyfacts]

so... what tracks?

I already asked that question and got no response.Maybe Dreamland or Pipe Dream Speedway.

[Jimmy Henry]

And I asked you what your name was...with no response.
Maybe not interested in letting people know who you are?

[153J]

and i asked , what tracks?

[Jimmy Henry]

We hope to have a working schedule released by mid-February.
Creating a new series is no easy undertaking, particularly getting a very late start.

It is a work in progress. The key is going to be racers letting the promoters know they will support this.

[Jimmy Henry]

Since you are short for words when asked your name onlyfacts, I will ask another question:

What is so unrealistic about the proposed purse structures and point fund we are trying to build?

Burn them!!!

what part of the country will this series operate in??

[Jimmy Henry]

Looking at a 4-hour area from Morgantown,WV.

3 race suspension for driver & car owner, loss of pts & money, & most importantly let everyone know what exactly infraction was per rule....... Puplic humiliation can sometimes be the most severe penalty among your peers & fans.

[ClampedUp]

Lose all money from the event, all points money, and pay a fine (to be added to the points fund) equal to the first place winnings of the event you cheated in once the 1 year suspension is up if they want to race the series again.
1st offense = 1 year suspension
2nd offense = lifetime ban

If you can, get all your supporting tracks to honor the suspension at their regular shows and other special events too.

I appreciate your input, guys.

Not only will this save racers thousands in tire bills, but the spec tire rule will also allow the underfunded teams a real opportunity to be competitive in the series.

The ONLY way to police tire prep is by taking lab samples. The sniffer and the durometer are extremely beatable.

If you wanna do it right, take samples from the winner, the pole sitter, and 1 name drawn out of a hat to take a sample after qualifying, and one random sample after the race.

[Jimmy Henry]

I agree, Austin34471...lab samples are the best way to police this issue properly and that is how it will be done.

that would be nice. start small and build it into something special so that all tracks will want to participate. best wishes to you.

[Jimmy Henry]

Thanks, pink floyd.

We are looking at building a regional brand..not trying to compete with the national tours.

welcome buddy. hope you have all minimum 5k to win shows. you could and would build an incredible regional following that way.

[formercrewguy]

Some of these penalties mentioned above are too sever for a regional series. I would say, just a random sample each night after the A main. If it comes back positive, that car is dq'ed for the night and put on probation for 1 yr. Good luck with your new series.

[Jimmy Henry]

Thanks, I appreciate it.
