the economod class that started out 2-barrell class being such a success . why handicap all existing racers . the 602 can run a 4 barrel on alcohol and 25 lbs lighter geez just mandate the motor none of can work on, and make racing a complete check book game

I personally don't have an issue with running the crate motor with a 4 bbl carb. but allowing e-85 and alcohol isn't saving anyone any money. look where the crates are now with exotic fuels, $1200 carbs (I know because I had one) and even worse now with the alcohol for several reasons one being expensive fuel delivery systems, the second being expensive carbs, another being inexperience costing huge dollars to repair burned pistons or worse due to poorly tuned engines. Bottom end issues due to low engine operating temps associated with poorly tuned alcohol engines will also put your motor back to the authorized builder. The lack of any carb modification rule for the crates alone will cost tons of bucks for the racers that choose that option and want to be competitive. From a safety aspect think of this.. When we ran alcohol we had a mandatory fire extinguisher in the car, had to breathe those poisonous fumes working on the car and especially in line ups. The fire potential for danger is increased simply because rescue crews cannot see it burning until something besides the fuel ignites. Here's how I see crates they are a great option in some cases such as opposed to $25k plus late model motors, modified motors, even for a start up class but they don't do well as a forced conversion in an existing division. In my opinion maybe some thought put into using up some decommissioned crates maybe a thought. there has to be tons of them out there that need bored, or valve guides, etc.. by now. even 602's that just need freshened, let a guy do his own rings springs bolts and bearings forget the seal submit to teardown if necessary whatever. I like this class but billing it as economy should mean treating it as economy, no exotic carbs necessary for any motor, no exotic fuels, one shock rate per wheel (we don't need fifteen choices of spec shocks kind of defeats the spec idea saving money IMO). As to the gift cards its great business to add contingency programs to benefit racers.

I think way to many rule changes at once. I get why u want the crate deal but people have been running and already have everything. It's not like your gonna gain 20 more cars maybe a few new people. Take care of the guys that have made the car count. It's not a bad deal now but it's gonna b one if this keeps up. Thanks

You need to think before you talk. The 602 crate runs on $3.89 a gallon 91 octane fuel no need for 8 and 9 dollar a gallon race fuel and as for E-85 it costs about 40 cents a gallon less. How is this not economical? I have a 602 that I have raced for 7 years that cost $2900 then and the only money spent on it since has been oil changes regularly a 39 dollar set of valve springs twice a year and 1 set of spark plugs in seven years. most likely I will race it again next year without spending another dime and yes the car is fast enough to have one a championship and multiple features against open motors that cost lots more money to build and operate.
The 602 sounds like an excellent option for this econo-mod class.

No offense if your running a stock crate motor on pump gas u didn't win a championship in this class nor would u b on the same lap as most of us. Now with new rules things might b different but I would bet last year a crate engine never broke a top 5, doubles was far from a crate lol so yes it's an option but not a competitive one. Plus if everyone has engines doesn't matter we will likely mostly run what we had. Alcohol isn't a good option.

So if I read between the lines here you are suggesting that the "economical" 2 barrel engines are already not inexpensive engine so why would any one bash an option that allows a $3150 engine to be competitive?

Not bashing but if anyone believes for 3150 will let u win its likely not gonna happen unless they keep bending the rules every year till it's possible. I don't think it's fair to the guys that have bought stuff to change cause Sweeney throws a bone. For a crate engine to b fast they had to make changes but by the time u buy the hp bolt ons u can build a good non crate. I am glad there trying to keep it competitive just slow changes not so much so fast. Good luck guys

last year there was a stock crate that finished in the top five. George Vestal was the driver. Larry Root also was competitive with a stock crate motor and finished sixth in points.

If they allowed a 604 crate it might work. 602 is a all steel boat anchor. I welcome the cheap alternative for a spare. If it's slick and they invert 12 a crate may maintain a position aka blocking but they don't come up to speed like a race engine should. I have raced everything and had many crate and open engines. Oh and yea check numbers on dyno it gives facts not bs

The 602 sounds like an excellent option for this econo-mod class.

I have thought before I spoke. If you actually read my comment it was not about the crate motor I actually started out saying I liked it. What my problem is was the fuel(s) specifically e-85 and worse alcohol. They add at the very least maintenance, and you wont be getting several seasons out of a motor with alcohol, or any derivative fuel. furthermore look at the crates when e-85 came in so did the $12.00 and more specialty fuel. Now lets talk carbs, as we all know no out of the box carb is made for these fuels, some one will gladly modify a carb for you in an even exchange for your wallet. Alcohol adds even more because getting adequate reliable variable fuel pressure and volume can cost as much or more than the carb. Plus as a bonus you can add the poisonous fumes and fire hazard to everyone else on the track.

I have raced for years classes from stock cars to crate lates, e-mods since the nineties when they first came here. I have seen claimer rules come and go, tire rules, crate motors, etc... In my experience what costs the money are tires, fuel, getting in to race and getting there. Chassis depending on luck are good for several years, and a good engine maintained properly can make a few years as well. I loved the goodyears on the crates they lasted and worked well.

I like this two barrel class ideology, in fact in my opinion if I were making the rules it would be way simpler. Rule number 1) one shock rate per wheel say 75 fronts and 95 rears a 90/10 on axle welded bearings only. Rule number 2) 1" carb spacer max must run track supplied restrictor plate installed night of race and removed before leaving. Rule number 3) pump gasoline only gas will be checked. Rule number 4) g-60 tires all four corners no treating, softening, grooving, cutting, or siping. otherwise I have no preferences except if quick changes allowed they must run ratios available in 9" only.

So in summary economy means savings right? somehow. save me money. fuel (cheap, simple), motors (plates hurt a big motor more than a little one, cheap, easy to tech and no major teardowns), tires (harder last longer, corners stay better so control change is minimized they go away less and stay consistent longer), shocks (enough cheap ones still equal one good one so why give us the options), getting there (I tried), broken parts (see below), something back for the racers like the gift cards, contingency programs are a win for everyone.

Another thought about this class along the same line saving money. this class has such a diverse level of drivers, young to old seasoned to novice. without ruining this diversity disadvantaging anyone how to control unnecessary costs as in control carnage, cautions. I have some ideas there, a points system for cautions. Here goes: you're in a caution you get a point. You cause a caution you get two. You go a night without a caution you loose a point. You accumulate say five points you no longer start in your earned spot you start in the rear. You continue to accumulate points to say ten you take a week off to work on your car (and loose a point for no cautions) come back next week and start in the rear. I know its crude but its a start to possible solution. No one wants to get torn up by someone that's not ready to start up front and causes a big wreck. Yet peanalizing inexperience isn't encouraging for drivers or the class. I guess im thinking once a guy gets to the rear pulling off before wrecking or paying more attention to how you drive and make sure you don't wreck is imperative you being able to start in your earned spot. and also on that note, don't burry the fast cars in some deep redraw, or random pill draw starts. Maybe 6 or 8 but deeper than that causes desperation some guys drive over their ability even if they are seasoned being that far back clouds the thought process.

I bought a new 650 double pumper from a builder in Missouri online over the phone works excellent for E-85 paid $650 not much more than the 3310 carb I was requires to run on the stock car. The e-85 fuel saved way more money than I spent on the carb. As far as methanol (alcohol) in a 9.5:1 compression engine if anyone racing thinks that is a good idea they are probably missing a lot of other things on how their race car really works and really would not be a competitive threat. The "specialty" oxygenated fuels I agree an advantage and should be monitored and not allowed. NOw your idea on points for cautions I think something like that is a great idea and should be considered for all divisions of racing. Everyone can make a mistake once and a while but the ones that do it over and over just don't get it that they are actually the problem. That idea would save lots of people money.
As far as the original post I think Sharon and Sweeney need congratulated. We should welcome any and all corporate support so that we all can continue to enjoy racing and arguing over how to do it right or who is the fastest.

dear Sharon speedway, this is how you get 40 racecars in one class at your track and still don't have to pay them much. I don't know who racing for fun is but I can tell you raced on a probably small budget. if only the tracks would give up what they get for manufacture money and double the money on attendance
