Rick,
Thanks for joining the site.
I hope that soon well will be able to have some good conversations on the site with enough people to make it interesting.
Let us know what you are planing for the rest of the year.

Rick,
What do you think about the SCCA's ruling that driver adjustable jetting is not allowed?
Seems to me that this would be a great way for racers to maximize the potential of their car.

Hey Richard
I don't mind not being able to change on the fly, correct me if I'm wrong, they did allow power jets?
I think for the future, some type of FI should be allowed for the 2 strokes.
Good luck with the new website, I hope it takes off like Dix's site did.
Thanks

Yes, the CRB did allow the use of power jets type system, using a knob located at the carb that allowed adjustment of it in the pits or paddock. Thanks to Scott for getting that approved.
Of course you have to know what you want to set your jets too before you go on the track. I never did get the hang of setting the jets well. Sometimes it worked well, some times not so much. I should have used the more scientific method instead of guessing.
Yes there are Fuel Injected 2 cycles out there. Most are in the 600 to 800CC class and from what I have seen, the prices are steep compared the purchasing a 494.
