    IMCA: Don't talk bad about us on the Internet

    Unsportsmanlike conduct or participating in any action or activity deemed detrimental to IMCA or an IMCA track at any sanctioned event or on social media by drivers, car owners and/or pit crews will be grounds for disqualification and/or punitive action by IMCA.
    Only in racing does a person knowingly put on a dud show, and then blames everyone else for not appreciating their dud show.

    They are a joke. they have ruined true racing in the Midwest. Their tech people have no idea what they are doing.
    I'll drive several hours to see a race when even though I have an IMCA track I can walk too.

            Gotta be doing something right! Lol

            I don't mind this rule at all. Tracks individually were already doing something like this, why not the sanctioning body too. The continuing bashing gets old quick.

              Is that why the pay out peanuts at the Boone SuperNationals too? What a money hungry sanctioning body.. Granted all are init to make money.. But when you have 800 cars show up and the winners get a roll of quarters and pat on the back, thats when things go wrong.. They draw nearly 300 imca mods for the SN, you think they could pay 10g to the winner.. 5g to the winner of the imca stock cars seeings they pull in nearly 200-250 a year.. Sport mods race for pennies as well, pay the winner 5gs..

              Brett Root is a fricken crook, and a tool, plain and simple..

                  Do they still have the motor claim rule?

                    Yes IMCA still has a Motor claim but this does not apply to crates which a lot of the Mod drivers are running.

                      That's easy to do, people do it on here everyday, it's even happened in this thread. Nobody knows who anyone is on for the most part. Can't get fined that way fellers.

                        No one makes anyone show up to that race. People whine and complain every year about super nats and swear they will never go back. Yet you see them back the next year. It's hilarious.

                          Agreed. A little constructive criticism is okay. However, some go way overboard with it.

                            The difference between constructive criticism and bashing is very blurry. Policies like this discourage valid criticism as well. That's the problem with policies like these. Trying to make it seem like everything is rainbows and butterflies does everybody involved a major disservice.

                              What fryefan said. You can give criticism which I'm fine with but be civil about it. What you see the majority of the time is the complete opposite. We used to have a racetrack ourselves and it was an eye opener.
