I guess i could just go with SM/Bako rules and make it a points race! Just trying to give other tracks, like Victorville guys a chance to come run here.

Chris,

I really appreciate the "track rules apply" thing. I have wanted to races at Santa Maria for several years.

I know the rules at VV and Perris are different than SMS but I think the 200 lb weight advantage the SMS and Bako cars get more than makes up for 1" wider tire could have. Besides everytime a bako or SMS car comes to Perris or VV the locals (me) seem to get a good old fashion butt whoopin.

I am really looking forward to this race. I will see if I can get any other Perris or VV cars to go but it will most likely end just being me with a couple of friends.

I run a 7.48 at VV. I turn 6800 there and would be afraid to spin it any more than that and if I am correct SMS is a little bigger than bako or VV.

I run a 6.37 at Perris. I ran the same gear at hanford and it wasn't perfect but okay. How big is SMS compared to Hanford?

Thanks for the help.

I've never run there myself but I know some Bako cars have run 7.48, and when the track is greasy it's too low a gear. We are heading over with 3.89's and a 1.82 powerglide.

Thanks, How many rpm do you expect to turn with your 7.08 final?
