I tried calling delaware this week but no answer..can some one tell me if the LM cars are allowed penske or bilstein shocks or just pros??

Jay is correct

7.   Shocks: Only one shock per corner permitted. Approved steel-bodied gas race shocks only. Retail value $150 CDN maximum per shock. No external adjustments, remote, air or aluminum shocks. No dynoing or rebuilding at the speedway without the express written consent of Race Director.

2011

so Delly threw us a bone.
Wow one of the worst kept secrets ever.
I get that the deal for the new 50 percent owner stake is still in the final stages and they can't or won't tell us whats up.
Thats business and until its done I can see why the Hush Hush however just let guys know you will or will not be a Nascar sanctioned track that assures them they will be running 18 times ( The Min races needed to be Nascar Sanctioned)
Guys can sell there programs knowing that.
As for rules it sucks but what can you do.
as for Comments about in the Tony era meetings werent till later has no bearing.
Nothing ever changed when Tony was at the Helm so we always knew there would be a season of 15 - 18 events and the rule changes were going to be nothing unless he opened a new business IE Fibreglass shop.

That has got to be one of the worst positions to hold, hated and rarely loved in my opinion. Thanks Ron for giving a year in, and hope your back racing.

My biggest concern is changes to the fabrication rules, I have heard murmurs of a 58" wide cage, I would like to build a new car, how ever it takes time and money and sponsor involvement is good. A schedule is nice as well. So in short some of the rumors i hear last year were just that while others were not.

Are you still an employee, and if all is so well why don't we hear anything?

Do ya really think he'd be posting like this if he wasn't?

This whole thing is like the Kevin/Amy debacle about 5 years ago. The sky was supposed to fall then too. Surprise. It didn't.

I have no earthly idea why you wouldn't just carry on business as usual until you hear otherwise. If it was me I'd maybe hold off IF I was building a brand new car....but how many guys are really doing that?

And if you're taking rumor and hearsay, and then taking it and TELLING your sponsors that there might be potential issues at the speedway before anything's even been announced...welll, you dug that hole yourself.

Sorry to be blunt. But this thread is messed up.


You might be surprised how many new Super Stocks are being built or having complete overhauls 
I know it's slowing down work I have to do for other teams this winter, not too pumped about a spring thrash.

thanks John for the words of calm. I am sure when all the details are ironed out, the masses will hear.  It's not unlike any other business dealings.  The thread did get a little carried away, I agree, but it's because Delaware has very passionate fans and drivers.  The thought of any changes at the track scares us all.  We never ever want to see it go away.

In any business there are many reasons why you would not hear anything.  In motorsports, we seem to jump to the idea of a catastrophe quite quickly.   I encourage the community to avoid this temptation.
