    Good luck to you both. WickedsG8 try and get it taken care of before the 2 weeks up. I doubt anyone wants to lose their spot due to a mechanical issue.

    no sir the only thing in the rules as far as spots is that if a spot holder loses his spot he will be bumped down the list pushing every spot holder below him down a spot. The number 10 spot holder will than have to race the number 9 spot holder for the final spot.

    i think if you lose you shouldn't get a spot until you win. that would open more spots for more racing.

    i didn't agree with how it started but we only had a few cars. but know there are more so it should be if you win you get a spot if not keep trying. instead of 2 cars racing for 2 spots. this ain't little league baseball where everyone is a winner lol.

    Of course this is not tennis but a tennis ladder works like this. You can challenger any spot you like but if you lose you go directly to the bottom. In our case if you lose you would go to the last spot open. If #10 is taken then you would get no spot.

    If you are referring to me those appear to be race cars. I'm just a street car. Bolt-on mods only, engine has never been touched.

    Any tire other than a drag radial make for what I call a race car. #2 and #3 appear to have slicks. However, can't tell for sure from the pics. And I bet #1 doesn't race with those tires either! LOL!

    Drag radials or just plain radials make for a street cars IMO.

    No but with juice a good reason why I see no reason for me to call either of them out. No power adder on my car. Not even an aftermarket cam. Now #5 might be a race for me.

    Really prefer roll racing but safer at the track from a dig. Or on one of those safe concrete freeways down south of the border!

    SSpeedchic runs a 275/40/17 Mickey Radial on the stock 10 bolt 3.42s. That picture taken was at the track and I bolt on front runners at the track to help with roll out. On the street she has the stock ZR1s

    the #5 spot is a cammed/stalled G8 with full bolt ons and drag radials. not sure that would be a fair race either
