what about the amount of skill and practice he brought to the table, ..

 

exactly this will kill a big speedventures supporter and a great new tire ,maxxis as no one will run r comps in mod and if they do their balls will be slashed in 1/2 lol, and nitto a fine long lasting tire by all regards will be negated from duty in mod.... ive been on rs3's for two years straight and wasnt planning on staying with those tires which die an early heat cycled death

so its either street tires in mod or add a supercharger to play in supermod ...seems like a crazy jump...the current mod guys going to be forced in supermod..... i thought mod would be were the action was this year....seems not

 

Run mod with R comps and a CR wing?

 

some of us care about winning and have sponsors we need to please , go play in street

the winning combo in mod would OBVIOUSLY be rs3's which are so hard to get these days, it doesnt make much sense ... why unmod to go to mod...not sure why the mod cap was lowered so much? , especially with the other changes which took place

 

Yeah, I didn't realize what just happened to mod, but it seems like all the points increases to parts and decreases in caps bumps everyone up a class...

I think mod should still have the 6.0 cap so they can at least run square, wing, coils, r-comps - which is what mod should be after all. The changes to street are agreeable...

 

The point was to put us all together (mod and SM). Unless someone balls out of control....we all essentially have the same mods. Tires were the only difference (street vs comp). We also didn't want people to demod so it made sense to pull mod guys up. My car vs Brian's car.....same car but he has smaller wing and I dont have a splitter. On the dyno im sure we all make similar power with the exception of Dustins car which makes monster torque from his camshaft

Really a class that uses a tire above rcomp tires or FI should be out of SM. I think mod guys were just as fast as SM.

 

I did that last post on my phone..hope it made sense.

 

but this gives street guys no room to move up unless they have a huge budget to jump to sm... the rules changes alone add 1 point to my car already putting me at 4.75 with no changes...

'unless someone balls out of control' exactly what we want to eliminate which is a money war/ or not as much parody.....

give the mod guys the chance to move to super mod and give the street guys a chance to move to a real mod class...

mod guys were as fast as supermod because of development time, money and driver entries ... at least thats what i saw

the changes made without making mod 5.5 it still does move some people to supermod , right? im not sure just asking ...

if mod were 6 points i add r comps and im done , not a bad deal for street guy like me, or at 6.5 i'd be fun to have a little headroom to maybe add a couple small improvements like hood ,canards or maybe hfc.....

sorry i dont want to run in supermod against a supercharger, it takes the skill of it and makes it a money game like formula 1 ....


sorry guys i update my posts make changes after i post

 

Mikes car is the same as an SM car...RS3s were the only difference, right? Why even use those when they cost similar, are never available and dont last the whole session like an NT01.

Really SM point should be lowered also, so someone like myself doesnt go FI or 4 point tire and dominate.
My car currently is at 7 points.
Really a 4 point tire is for setting personal bests....right? They dont last for SH!t

This way mod and SM will be one and people like Dylan wont have to demod for his fenders, hood, bumper etc which doesn't make THAT big of a difference.


Thoughts?

 

Put street tires on my car, and Im at 5.75 points.
Get rid of my ECU and Im in MOD at 5.5. I know Ill hit a 1:58 @ BW in with 5.5 points.

Makes sense to bring MOD guys up....
