Our club struggled this year with 3.0 trucks, we're on the fringe of PPL & Outlaw territory. Outlaws shot themselves in the foot with a spec fuel, while PPL had good numbers in the beginning of 2017, then trickled down to 10ish trucks a hook.
My opinion, as a club director, there only needs to be 3 diesel truck classes:
- 2.6 smooth bore - air to air i/c's, single rear tires only
- any single smooth bore charger - open driveline, factory frame, DOT tires, 7500lbs
- Super Stock - multi-charger, cut tires, tube frame, 7-7500lbs
The above are just guidelines, that in my opinion would help grow the classes. This constant rule changing BS has to stop, I've seen probably 15-20 trucks in our area alone get parted out and sold or parked due to rule changes every single year.
