You can make all the rules in the world but someone is still going to gripe and complain about something. Since this is intended to be a "street car" orientated event, here are my suggestion to help solve some of the BS before it starts.
Simply run it like nmra/nmca or similar street car shootout series. In place of the 30 mile cruise have everyone meet up at the college park rest area unload and drive to dorchester (only 20 miles) And i edited the tire rule to allow slicks at the track.
