In one of the RUSH press releases it said all FASTRAK cars would be legal.

Fastrack rules are the same as last year but rush rules only allow Bloomquist chassis and RYR power !! Didn't you see on here ?? Even thought the rules are damn near identical it requires 2 different cars and your not allowed to race unless you have a stacker rig to bring both cars with you !!

Looks like rush can have a bigger spoiler and shorter sail panel windows. No major changes like some crybabies lead us to believe. 1piece of aluminum will make the new rush pieces, or u can just trim the sail panel with snips and run the small spoiler from your fastrak body. Some locals like Horton, Gavin, and Montgomery ran in Florida so some used d21 tires might be available. If not I'm sure hortons high gear speed shop sells them. Should be same price as the fastrak tires but you can cut up the d21

by the looks of it RUSH has about locked up the northeast region with MCR, Sharon, Bradford, The Rock, the Knob, with meetings at Erie, RW7 and several other tracks possibly on board. It is going to be very hard for Fastrak to even schedule a race in NWPA, NEOH, SWNY. It looks as if Stan is just about out of options.

FASTRAK made the announcement that they will not recognize other series' bolts and seals---in other words, you can run FASTRAK seals (at this point) in RUSH and NeSmith events, but you cannot run NeSmith (RUSH) in FASTRAK...so to say just spoiler and weight is the difference is not correct.

Fastrack is just saying if you have an illegal motor you can't run with them ... Not hard to understand ...

I didn't think it was hard to understand but trying to bring up a point on this board without contention is nearly impossible.

Been racing there for 15 years and have always been paid. I'm not sure what you are refering to about not getting paid for the Black Diamond. We got paid for the races that were held on Thursday and Friday. The races on Saturday were cancelled. I didn't like how that turned out, but to say we didn't get paid is not true.
