Cool.....they run something similar up here, but the longest paved tracks are just 1/2 milers.

Did you switch to a Ford then back to a Chevy?

Default Rules

Here are the rules for the tracks around here that run any Late Model or Late Model 'type' hot rod:

Evergreen--Whelen Super Stock (NASCAR NW Tour Cars)
http://www.evergreenspeedway.net/art...icle_168.shtml

Yakima--Super Late Model
http://www.yakimaspeedway.us/webs/3/...20late%20model

Yakima--Late Model Sportsman
http://www.yakimaspeedway.us/webs/3/...mode=sportsman

South Sound--Super Stock (NASCAR NW Tour Cars)
http://www.southsoundspeedway.com/superstockrules.htm

South Sound--Limited Lates (Late Model Sportsman)
http://www.southsoundspeedway.com/SportsmanRules.htm

As you can see the terms 'stock appearing' and 'stock type' appear a lot---dunno about you, but I sure LOVE gray areas in a rule book.


I don't race pavement anymore...dirt is just too much fun.

The big drawback to dirt is the clean up afterwards....having a new track every lap is kinda cool, though.

Plus 110 sideways is a bit of a rush.

Ran a modified last year and will have two modifieds and a 360 sprint car next year.

I don't own anything myself anymore---just crew on the mods and will be crew chief on the sprinter.
