Check out the new rules for Top Truck next year. Minimum qualifying time is 14.99. Interesting that this years Top Truck champion does not fit the new criteria even though his "Trash Truck" is featured on the rules page. :p

Question on the fuel rule. Does this mean a vehicle cannot add race fuel to 93 octane pump gas to increase the octane? Looks like it to me. I've never noticed that one. :cool:

For bracket racing, I don't understand any of the new restrictions. If it was a heads up race, with limited cu in, weight, etc I would. Are we fixing the cards, trying to change the class, or just being somewhat creative with bracket racing now??????
Sorry but I disagree with all of the changes 100%.

I can understand FFW lowering the Top Truck qualifying standards, but not to 14.99. That potentially eliminates some stock GenI Lightnings from the class and I think that is a bad idea.
:cool:

NO octane boost but Nitrous is Ok? Someone needs a reality check here. Another item....run it in the evening when the trucks produce HP. My .02.

I don't think you should be able to run in Top Truck unless you have invested your entire 401 K in your truck and if it can't run 14.99, you should be shot by a chevy owner!

Did they say anything about limiting how many Mustangs run in True Street? If anything needs a rule change, it's that!

Quite a few Mustangs run really well. These runs are exciting to watch. Unfortunately there are just as many that take a substantial amount of time getting down the track. It seems that for every one 12-sec. Mustang there are ten 14-second Mustangs.

Maybe it's just me, but it makes FFW seem to drag on forever. No flame, just my observation.

Yep, true street pushed the last round of Top Truck Qaulifying to Sunday. Like flies they were everywhere! They should run when it doesn't hold the rest of the event up!

They are using one of my pics of Kevin Todds truck next to the rules now.. The old pic had the "Trash truck " Banner and we didnt need to be promoting that ...

so it's against the rules to spray a lightning?

it says nitrous permitted on non supercharged or turbocharged engines.

FYI...just updated the rules on Top Truck. No fuel checks and nitrous is allowed with supercharger.
