    Having the droop rule AND having a LR deck height rule of 39 inches at ride height is counter productive. Now they are literally forcing everyone to run the same drop. What fun is that?

      None at all. It seems having fun isn't important anymore. I guess it could be worse, I could be Bloomer. He might as well retire over this.

        We struggle. I know there are normal width trailers with a wider opening than ours, but still... We shouldn't be penalize on aero because we don't have a semi trailer.

            I'm not sure why it ever changed Josh. I remember a few years back getting a car from CJ, right after that changed. We threw an engine in it and took it racing. Tech guy told us we were 3" low.

              There was a firecracker back in like 13 or 14. 17 guys failed deck height after time trials.

              It went up to 39 the next year or the year after.

                Which is why none of this should be that hard

                    If everybody would have just stuck to their guns, it’d still be at 36”. The biggest thing would be to get people to tech that aren’t p*ssies.
