wtf is this horse hockey? if i understand this correctly its telling me that i need stacks?

i copied this from the odra rule book...

Exhaust: All vehicles must be equipped to direct exhaust
upward. The exhaust must exit rearward of the driver’s
compartment. Stacks exiting through the hood or fenderwell
are prohibited.

no, that cant be right, then almost everybody who wants to pull wouldn't be able to.

i know some pulls don't like people with dumped exhaust. but a side exit exhaust most everybody has that kin of exhaust.

There is no ODRA Rule Book.

The 5E Diesel / ODRA North Texas Sled Pull will put on in association with NADM however there will be some differences. For more details call Bobby at 5E Diesel 817-528-2166.

According to Bobby with 5E Diesel, the "true work stock" 8000+lbs Class does not require a stack.

hey for work stock ranch hand bumpers on the front are allowed? some pulls don't allow that.

But as far as exhaust traditional side exit is just fine eh?

According to Bobby:

Ranch Hands are not a problem however no hanging weights in "work stock".

Traditional side exit exhausts are ok for all Classes*.


*possible exception for the "Super Street Diesel Class" (the heavy hitters) due to safety
