I have heard no talk of the multiple classes. I think the best way we could go is 2.6 class, and then a larger class. Drop the mph limit. The issue is there really aren't enough trucks to run 3 classes. We have 3 or 4 that would run the 2.8+ class, and then several that would run the 2.6 down class.

The fuel only was a joke, as there is some questioning of some of the pullers running fuel only.

Do you think they will let 2wd pull with a higher hitch at Neosho? OK6speed do you carry any weight? I am worried I might not have the traction needed in the start of the pull. I am going to scale my truck this week and see where I am at.

$20 after that.. chris.. or zstroken.. correct me if i am wrong...or add any thing i missed...

I scaled my truck today and it weighed 7,490 with a half tank of fuel. I was wondering if tech would allow me to strap down two 55 gallon drums full of water in the bed. for a quick way to add some pounds? This would get me close to 8500 lbs. Have any of you guys seen this done a local pulls?

Not really sure what there trying to do to me it sound like the 15mph will be for guys with just a box or injectors. Im going to Cassville tonight ill find out more and let you guys know.
Yeah a 2.6 class sounds good so that I wont have to compete with all these trucks running 2.8 to 3. whatever size chargers that are running water and no tellin what else while turnin 5000rpm. I'd like a little breathin room for my little 'ol street truck that I drive to work everyday
