    Swap a roof for those sail panels, we're almost there as it is.

    Level out the deck and put a regular spoiler on it and i think it looks 10x better than the bodies we have now!

    If you delve into it, it’s a limited late model series. All that downforce is gonna be more of a hinderance than a boon.

    They look great. Hope they can make it work, but I think we can cast enough negativity to kill it before it gets off the ground.

    What the *^." is that. It's a limited class so how many cars are they going to get. Bad idea.

    Did you watch DLM cars back in the 80’s?

    Love the Wedge bodies. Is this not tied into the Blue Ridge series some how?

    It is a separate series that is run by the same people that have the Blue Ridge Outlaws.

    Thank you , I had not heard about it but love what the BROLM do so I expect this to be just as successful for them….the blue ridge shows are almost always good at every track they go to.

    This sounds like a potentially good series, both for newbies that never got to see these cars and for the old fogeys like me that ran them back in the '80-early '90 era. Their rule package makes sense and makes for one helluva fun race car in the modern era of $30-50K Hobby and Sport Mod classes.

    I've got near everything in the shop, or behind it, to put one together, including my old '85 chassis that got charred in our fires 3 years ago out here. Quite a lot of melted aluminum and fiberglass but very doable. With about a dozen race series it also suits about what I'd like to do anymore. If it weren't about a 2,500 ride each way I could go for the open trailer bucks to cut the travel costs. Wish them good luck with the series and that we could join them.
