Wingless show


 


For the wingless show after season championship will all classes be running wingless? or will the Jr.Sprints not be running in it?


Thanks-Jerrod

I can't speak for the track, but I would hope its an all classes show. Would be good experience for the JR's to work on controlling more slide, although they will probably be least affected.

Hopefully everyone realizes how much fun wingless cars are and we get some regular season races next year.

More and more series are following the full size sprinter trend and adding non-wing events to the schedules.

From what I understand JR's will run but they will have to run wings.Paul doesn't want anything to happen to his little ones.

that kinda sucks. I remember one occasion where a JR sprint flipped and was allowed to continue to race without the wing. Looked real cool, and you could tell there was a little more "driving" involved in the corners. anything that would force the JR's towards more throttle and slide control would vastly improve their transition to the larger cars.

I don't see a whole lot of safety value in those junior sprint wings anyway, as they are so close to the cage and have little room to crush in the center section.

There are a few Jrs out at deming that have had to raise one of the top rollcage bars in their car because thay are too tall for the car, if they were to flip and the top of the cage got pushed down even a little bit they would get really hurt, so not having a wing on them isnt a good idea, and the wing does make a big difference with those cars so i dont think they are running wingless.

I guess I would consider frame integrity of that magnitude to be a safety issue winged or not if it was my car. A couple layers of skin aluminum add very little protection in an impact, and wont stop the cage from failing.

I certainly do understand maintaining safety as a priority in this class, and all for that matter.

gate times and prices will be the same as a regular race. Those of you that have season passes your pass is good for the wingless race as well.
