Top division at CLR

[Carolina Dirt Phantom]

Seems that most tracks can not make it without the SLM or LLM. Its really hard for CLR to compete with the high purse that Clarys, 311, DMS, & FMS offer. Has the promoter ever considered a limited sportsman or open wheel mod class to fill the void of LM? Right now T&L is County Lines top class...no offense to CLR or its fans, but the T&L division there is not a true T&L division. Most tracks I've been to with T&L, the T&L class is basicaly sportsman cars like Steve Pearson from Clarys or Scott Neighbors at Dublin or Tater Liles at WCS.

myself would much rather see late model;s flying around the track. it hink they should races more next yr than they were this yr.maybe mr. batten will have a good yr.

No way CLR will be able to compete with Clarys, FMS, or DMS. I think a sportsman class would be a good idea for CLR. If the keep T&L as the top class at least reqiure all the guys run after market bodies like Lee Brinson did. That way it won't look like a street stock class.

Finally someones agrees with me about the T&L class at CLR. They need to call that class what it really is...super street. If they want to call a class T&L, get a true T&L class. I still think CLR should try a limited late model or open wheelmod class to fill the void of LM.

Original T&L classes were stock chassis cars and slowly evolved into a sportsman type car.I think a Junior/Limited Latemodel class at CLR would be a great idea.Let them run older latemodel chassis(NO 4-LINKS!!),and the same motor rules as CLR's T&L class.By the way,my last post was only a joke.I am the crewcheif on the 07 & L2 Thunder & Lighting cars at CLR.Clr ran a Junior Latemodel class years ago and it did really well.

If you going to run a junior late model class let 4 bar cars run but make the motor rules right for the class. get used to running a four bar car that way when you move up to slm you already know how to work with a four bar car.That's what a track need to do in this area just like 311 does gives the guys a chance to get used to that type of car before you race a real slm car and then if you want a t&l class make it a stock front clip car there plenty of both to go around.

Everywhere I have been other than CLR the T&L cars are Rockets, GRT, Rayburns, etc. with a stock front stub on them.
