So, If I drop a 75 Imp body on a 66 3/4 Chevy pick up frame,can I call it an Imp and run in open? Truck arm rear suspension maybe a 74 front crossmember with disks and power steering, 454, Qjet and a th400. It ought to run. When and where is the next meeting?

Well, my old car is old and it still runs ok, so I must not tear up to much. maybe it's time to build a new one.

Hello. Open class cars run "C" clip eliminators? I do not know of many, if any, that do. Some use the Ford 9" axle shafts (bolt in). Some run after-market axle shafts. For stock class, Ford axle assemblies are not allowed under a GM. After-market is pricey. A full floater is $150.00 (or less), and probably will not break. David Bryan

Ideas for discussion:
Allow Ford 9" NON FLOATER rearends into Stock. Drum Brakes only.
Allow Hoosier/American Racer Tires 10" wide tire 8" wide rim
Mandate Neck Braces
Discourage the use of C Clip gm axles
Limit the car builds to exsisting rules. Clearify what bars are allowed. Explain difference between engine loop and 2" square from dash bar/ roll cage to radiator support.

Soon. We are waiting on the officials to confirm the dates. As far as we know most of the races from last year are having races again this year so you can probably guess the days they are but before posting we want to confirm.
Changes I do know. Albion will be back with a race this year on Wednesday July 10th

So Theron just because you run a box car and didn't like what they were saying about them you had to delete the posts about them cause you didn't like them talking bout your car?? What ever happened to the right of freedom of speech I was just wondering or do you just not like people talking about you? I know you will delete this post right away and wont comment back about it and y is that isn't the president suppose to help the organization not make things difficult but seems to me you like to just do that but I may be wrong correct me if I am. Thanks

You are wrong Brian. I won't delete your post and I will respond.
I did not delete the post because it talked about box cars. Box cars that nobody will give a determination for what they are. I deleted it because people were making personal attacks on various drivers and drivers that aren't even in the open class. I also deleted it because there was false information posted. I also deleted a post Sunday because profanity was used. This board is a privilege, not a right or freedom of speech. It was suggested to me to have the board removed, but I think most can control themselves and use this board for positive things like selling parts, talking about other races and more.
I also deleted it because after some quick research Sunday I felt that one person had three accounts on the message board and kept making new names so people wouldn't know who he was. If more would be like you and not hide from who they are when make accusations, all would be good. Thanks for asking Brian and if I'm making things more difficult then I'm sorry. Just remember that your friend Dan was President when the box cars started and he had a meeting on them. Was you at that meeting in York to voice your opinion? Maybe I should be complaining about Leroy and Colin's car as I haven't beat them this year, but wait, that's the easy way out. Instead I'm spending some time this week trying to make my car a little better so hopefully I can, as my secret smoke screen idea didn't work!

I dont think it takes a rocket scientist to figure out which cars are being talked about when we say box car! should we call them modified instead or maybe cars similar to the iowa cars!

So what's the difference between hacking the rear end of your car off and shortening it up that way compared to making it a box car like Iowa? Or heck what about plating the crap out of your car and making it a tank? They are all modified cars
