THE RULES NEED TO STAY THE SAME FOR AT LEAST TWO (2) YEARS (Frozen) to create some stability in the Modified Class for competitors and UROC!!!!!
I make this statement based on the following points:
1. UROC would have an easeir time enforcing the rules as they stand for a couple of years and have much more time to concentrate on staging events instead of answering phone calls on the rules from competitors.
2. Competitors would be able to concentrate on racing instead of the politics of rule changes.
3. Competitors would have more time and money to find sponsors and fine tune their vehicles instead of always being in a state of change. Example, who has time money and resources to build or modify their vehicle each time the rules change for the Modified Class (this seems to be every 6 months)?
4. With the pay structure the way it is and with only 14 vehicles running the PRO class it makes more sense to let the current vehicles compete using the CURRENT RULES for the next couple of years.
5. Jeep (as an example) has kept the same basic TJ design for the last 7 years very succesfully. With the rules for the Mod Class changing every few months it is basically the same as creating a new vehicle for each rule change. I use the frame rule change for an example.
I make an end to my points with a closing comment, each time the rules change there is a ton of complaining and it is a painful process for all involved including the tech. guys at the events, the promotors, and the competitors. Please create some stability and leave things alone for a while (two years).
