Change the time so the younger kids are alert and able to enjoy the show, thats what the parents want occupied kids! Lets run the kaos between heats and features! this gives the the other divisions more prep time and people time to buy more hotdogs if they don't like the Kaos stuff.
Aw man...you left out the "It was a SLOBBERKNOCKER" victory lane quote.
I heard that if more cars don't show up That they will be getting the Axe
further more John no where in here was there a rumor started that the chaos cars were getting cut!!
LOL You Liked that eh? I Didn't know what else to say. I even forgot to thank my crew! It looks like I'm buying the next round on Friday.... :D
Hi everyone, Just a short 2 cents from someone new to Delaware. Have made it out 3 times this year and each time the line up has been different. Most of the time we sit and think it would be great to get in on the action sometime, but even the enduro cars are a bit intimidating. Some of those cars really haul. Now the chaos cars take the stage and all of a sudden the idea of "getting into racing" seems a whole lot closer to reality. Slower speeds, lighter cars and I must assume lower cost all point the way for a wider range of newcomers to enter the sport. Not to mention the giggle factor. I vote keep em!
Sitting here thinking the wife`s neon is in the driveway. Maybe it needs a tune up "chaos style".
ya im not a fan of chaos car racing personally i think it sucks but im not gonna lie when there s some smashing going on im tuned in
my 2 cents its, A DONKEY SHOW., but what do i no right lol
4. Move 360 degree barrel turns into corners where there is more space from walls (concrete hurts)
If we need chaos cars to keep fans from going to the movies. We're in big trouble.
Was not looking for a entry level of racing from them,, but maybe once a month with the Enduros.
I thought we could get them to start running with Enduros cars so we could get more car counts...
If we needed a new entry level it would have to be fiberglass tube chassis trucks.
Somebody lock this thread??!! Jeebus 5 pages now GO SNOT!!!
hey snotrod i love your passion for what you do keep it up and it will rub off on others and mabe it will help the classThanks dude, I appreciate it. I've been waiting my whole life to race, so I have alot of passion for what I compete in. Put me in any race car and I'll drive the wheels off it. Good luck at Barrie, Charger.
for all u idiots that dont' like the chaos cars

This topic should have never whent this long. An admin or moderator should lock it since every reply is the same thing(complaints)
Build, buy, or beg for a racecar
I guess I need to spell it out. My post refered to all the entry level experience one gets from the chaos division. I pointed out that it does not prepare you to drive a circle track car! It's also not a comment on the type of racing so please don't read that into it.Entry of the car name, filling out registration
Purchasing a vehicle
Interpet the rules, apply these to the your car
Fabricate, prepare the car.
All that applies to horse racing if you replace car with horse. Or dogs or the ironman triathalon for that matter.
Doesn't make it racing for the oval track unless you think that maybe they should run horses too. Then I can't help you any.
Want to tour the pits and see what a race team does, go visit one and hang out with them. Want to race a car at the track bring a race car not Mr.Bean or Pee Wee Herman's car.
My suggestion for the division as a whole is to decrease the track size even further for Chaos Car events. Keep the speeds down and the cars closer together. The change to 300 bumps and bangs at low speed from a couple large wrecks at speeds exceeding the safety engineered into the vehicles will result in a better show and increased car count.
- I got to watch the RedBaron (another regular like SnotRod) spin into the new concrete pit wall all by himself. OK, it happens. But to follow that up by deliberately slamming into the wall two more times (once forward and once in reverse) was terrible. Nice message your sending. "Thanks for the new pit wall Arlen, here's how much I appreciate your investment!" You don't see LM drivers pulling stunts like that. Sure they cost more, so that would be exceedingly stupid. But it's about respect. I put what the RedBaron did right alongside keying someone's car. It's gutless. There have been some comments in this tread about people not respecting the Chaos Car division. Well, stuff like this makes it easy to see why.
... ummm, do you think you're giving the driver that was doing the barrel turns twice a bit too much credit lol. Usually people don't hit walls "deliberately" lol. What's everyone think of that one?
Investing the effort into a real car and taking part in the sport in a real way would give someone the respect for the track and sport they should have. Sportsmanship comes as taking part in a SPORT, and wouldn't apply to some bastardized poor excuse for a sport like bloody knuckles or in this case Chaos cars.
Its a jack$ss concept to start with wouldn't you expect the particpants to fit the part? You reap what you sow.
ryan.day.......who crapped in your cereal dude? you have to be THE most bitter person i have heard in a long time. do you race at all or are you a spectator?
He secretly wants to race in the chaos cars, but acts all tough and bashes them. :PLOL Thats basically everyone who dislikes the class. They are just jealous beacause they dont have a chaos car to race.
Wow this thread is like the Energizer bunny ;D
they had to "g**" it up to get anyone to come out
Correct, thats because its racing. Replace 3/4 scale race cars with junk and barrels and you aren't going to get 5-10,000 people. So fine replace Chaos cars with 3/4 and race the track properly.
But if we took your Slo-Pitch and turned into into a joke such as you had to wear a Barney costume with a flashing light on your head and run around 2 barrels to get to 1st would you still be playing? Or if someone decided that your game was not exciting enough they had to "gay" it up to get anyone to come out, how would that make you feel?Our games aren't designed to amuse anyone but the participants, and the girlfriends / wifes that come out to watch and laugh at us, flashing lights, or no flashing lights. True some guys spend 10's of thousands of $'s on equipment, and I'm sure if Snotrod and the likes had that kind of cash to throw around, they might be in a different division, but they have to start somewhere. Again, it's aimed more at less 'traditional' fans, and more at the first timers and rookie fans, as well as most importantly the kids.
Some guys spend 10's of thousands on equipment, decades learning the sport, months in the shop, with muliple men teams to put on a show that is not good enough to attract fans without running foolish little cars around barrels? What does that say? To me its pissing on them.
Any one who might be interested in chaos car racing I have a line on a great car. 1992 Handa accord 4 door rune great. Can't pass Etest but stiil runs great guy wants $400.00 thats cheap body is in good condition. Once again it would be a great chaos car. Unfortunately I don't have the room or I would buy it let me know if any one is interested.Looks light a great opertunity for you Ryan
Could you imagine how many more crashes if the 02 car hadn't had mechanical failure ??? ???lol, maybe you should or could keep your BS thoughts or opinions to your self. Did Mark poop in your cornflakes at somepoint?? why would you find it necessary to post that?? "Bornagain" fan??

Just as shadow commented, last year you used Stewart as your own whipping boy for quite a while. I guess it is OK for you to do it?Â
BTW, and back to the Chaos Cars, Snotty got kinda rooked last night. they did the one on one races agian, then a final that was exactly one lap. Snotty started at the back and didn't have much of a shot in one lap to win the race.
Still waiting for Dougys tighty-whitey run, though it looks like that's a little ways off yet. :D
!!! They remember !!! I am hoping to bang it together for the Invitational this Friday.
Just a note that Mr. Day is no longer with us on CRO.Ah there goes the neighbourhood. Too busy building his Chaos car? It wont be quite the same without him..... again!!
What do people here think about the chaos car bonus money for the next 2 races.
dont see any value at all in the chaos car division,delaware powers that be should rethink! I agree it is a fall fair event, so leave it to the fair!Tell me racerrx where did you get your start from and hey if you think the payout is big come race chaos cars and have some fun. If you don't like that it is to hard to earn money in enduro maybe the powers that be should force the top seated drivers up a class to even out the field. Just a thought.

That'd never work. Everytime thiose top enduro guys run with the SuperStox they end up way, way behind.
You know, it just occurred to me that Delaware oughta have a couple of "house cars" for the chaos division. Then whenever two drivers from the upper divisions are involved in a brou-ha with one another, they can settle it in the Chaos Arena, match race style.
Think Kennedy vs Watson on the chaos course wouldn't have at least sold a couple of tickets ?
BTW...the naysayers have had their say Bornagain...don't fight it. Folks either have a sense of humor about racing or they don't.
Incidentally, the Chaos prize money is put up by the series sponsor and is not being siphoned off from other divisions. Lets just get rid of that line of thought up front.
No one's taking anything away from anyone.
Hey Chao's guys just so you know, there is going to be a 4cyl enduro at Sauble speedway on Sept. 12th, i'm pretty sure, your cars will make tech http://www.saublespeedway.com/ (http://www.saublespeedway.com/)Now we're talkin. Do you folks want to learn to race or put on a show. What did John say 80% entertainment 20% competition? In my opinion racing is 100% both.
Oh just one more thing , I was invited to drive in the corn cob 500 today (what the heck is that all about) and it sounds like a lot of fun so I'll be there and I've heard you can have a co pilot (you in Jay or shadow LOL ) but I'm drivin LMAO !!!
Have fun out there

OK I'll bite... The corn cob 500?
I look at it this way (about paying the gate ) these guys have gone to the effort to build cars and come out and try to put on a show with no chance of getting any return on thier investment (but fun) , but now there's what ... a whole $ 125.00 to win and all I'm hearin is ...What they get in free !!! That would be $ 125.00 for the season IF you win (that wont even buy me a tire) !!! How about giving these guy's a break (reguardless if you like the class or not) at least the're out there ! Maybe one day one of them will be the guy that moves up and runs real good and you can say I remember when he started out in a Chaos Car !!! I know I sure as heck did'nt start at the top and maybe some of you may think I did'nt amount to much (not many wins and no championships) but I've had one hell of a good time racing what I have and made a lot of GOOD friends doin it !!! Seems that these days we all forget the bottom line ... It's supposed to be fun !!!!
