Hmmm, Jon, speaking as a car guy only, one of the things that attracted me to LSR was the variety of classes. I like and chose /CC because I can play without the body as well as the engine. Competiti

As a newcomer to Land Speed Racing (and this mailing list) I feel Jonathan's comments about attracting newcomers and limiting classes might be diametrically opposed. I've raced at Maxton twice this y

Strange as it may seem, some of us are just out to have FUN playing with cars. I get about 90% of my thrill out of racing at Maxton before I ever put the car on the trailer. Building something that

The advantage or disadvantage of having large numbers of classes aside, I don't believe there is a correlation between more or less classes and attracting new participants.

I disagree, less classes would make this sport, which is already very tough, but more competitive, people like competitiveness, thats were most roots are from and always will be. for example. This h

I'm not sure if more or fewer classes would have an effect on participation,but I believe proximity would.I started drag racing in 1960 because I loved cars and was blessed with two strips in town-on

I'll second that. It costs me well over a thousand bucks just to get to Maxton, sleep inside, and eat 99 cent Mckaburger specials. If there was a race or two a year that was within 500 miles of home,
