    Local Racers, tech people and tracks???

    Will they follow suit or not spend the time and money to police the new rules. With all the success in the Bob Pierce Racing world, your going to stop them all from running 7 shocks and one clamped? Let alone any hiding factors under a late model.

      Most are not following Lucas rules.

          I have seen quite a few cars with 7 shocks the last 2 years.

            I go to a lot of tracks in Ohio,W.VA,Ky,Tenn. and when they have a big race it always says per lucas rules. I wonder if they will follow the new rules or not!!! But I bet they do. I don't think they will police it 100% unless it is a Lucas show.

              They will follow Lucas rules for a Lucas show. Tracks will keep AMRA or whatever they have had for regular shows

                  I have seen front, behind, and on axle. I have seen an extra shock on back of cage. I have seen shocks used for suspension links.

                  I have seen front and back of cage with one clamped to front of axle.

                  Lots of ways...

                    A 90/10 above the rear-end, 4 corners, 5th coil and the LR Dummy, thats 7.

                    Alot of people dont run the 90/10 but its getting more popular with the bump stop contingent.

                    Just say no...

                        I broke up with my 90/10 in 1999 and never looked back.

                          Never have ran one, see alot that do.

                          He was running Mudlick one night, hopped out out the gas and the car did an 90 headed to the wall, he recovered and came in and said it was violent when he dumped the gas pedal. I said well get smoother with the pedal, never had a problem after LOL.

                          Wondered if the 90/10 would help that, but to many other problems to solve LOL.

                          Just say no...
