Re: The Buck!

I did however notice the Buck has some new rules this year...I hope they don't try to hold everyone to the letter on the new rules. If they do they will only have about 10 trucks that pass tech check.

They said the same stuff before and didn't follow it. I believe it was the pull at the end of last summer, I called about the helmet rule for the stock class [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shrug.gif[/img] They said oh yeah, you need a helmet. So I spent all afternoon rounding up a helmet for myself and for my dad to run his truck. We show up and they look at me like an idiot for bringing a helmet to the stock class [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

The tech inspection was pretty much a joke so unless that's changed then I don't think they stick to tight to any of what is posted on the website. This isn't meant to say that people should try and "cheat" but rather that if you have some dumb little thing that would officially put you out of the stock class, you probably don't need to worry about it. I wasn't technically legal but I knew I wasn't going to win or even come close and I wasn't doing anything dangerous so who cares, just doing it for fun.
