Yes you would have.
I tried to allow a bigger distinction between the 2 classes but it did not work.
Will have to come up with a bigger difference.

Dave for future reference and races BSRT and TYCO have 3 ohm arms. BSRT calls it a high power arm. We could try that arm with stock magnets and go up from there. Just a suggestion. |

Yes something like that as the stock and super stock were running about the same times.
Another possibility is limiting the Stock to gear ratios in the 7/25 range, as Pete suggested, that will slow them a lot and
many stock cars come with those ratios, the problem is trying to count the teeth on those gears. I had thought of that myself
but trying to count the teeth is a pain.
Congrats on taking the #1 spot in PSO and 4GO I dropped off the lists to let others have a
shot as I have been up there to long.

the high power is a worked up arm at 2.6, HC for tyco 2.5. The BSRT is 20$, HC doesn't offer a worked 2.5.
stock could be more like stock. ie. stock tires size and gears. You could just allow one size gear 23 and tire size, road racers call this spec stock.
The tyco arm is a bad fit for the fusion, also there would be only one car that would have a factory motor made for that car, the rest would be generic, no way vote from me. plus then what is the difference between Pro Mod and super stock?
Dave we posted the same time. for tech you only have to tech the winner. Want to win? pass tech inspection

Yes makes sense to only tech the top qualifiers.

I think that gearing or some thing along that line is a better idea than changing the motor ohms and components. Super Stock should really just be hopped up Stock. Not a huge difference....but a difference. Gearing would give you the difference. |

Viper has a Custom 2.5. You can get spinner arms from BSRT 2.6 there about. Green wire arms fall into 2.5. Host will make a custom 2.5.
If you created a Pro stock division Ceramic motors or c4, any traction 2.5 motor. Should lower et by 1/10 and speed could be 2 or 4 mph faster.
Open Pro Mod to any motor.

My thought on the difference in stock and ss. I like both classes having the 6 ohm arm , to me that just says a type of stock class. Restricting gearing sounds good until you think about how many problems/time a person putting on a race could actually come across.
A suggestion to a possible answer ...
Change the weight on SS to 19 gram.
No willie bars on stock cars.
Well just a thought anyway.

Good thoughts Sam. Less weight is easy to do.
I had reached out to Dave about the any motor magnet SS rule in a PM before his race. That is where we spoke of making the two classes more distinct.
I love the stock class, ten years ago you needed to change motors and magnets to reach the speed a stock car can achieve now with ease.
