If you cant get a block to hold up being deckplated there you're doing something wrong. Theres people out there that have 100 runs on there blocks and dont have problems and are winning or points champion trucks. Badger state isnt allowing billet blocks or heads like PPL wants.

Badger state is trying to locally save a nationally dying class. Opening up the rules for the remaining scheid trucks to smoothly transition to ss once 3.6 is eliminated seems justifiable.
oke: although I wouldn’t be opposed to seeing the Duramaxs in state to be granted billet heads. For durability purposes, not like they are going to start winning anytime soon either way.
