If your gonna cheat, your gonna cheat. I like to think that Im racing to win cleanly. If you beat me because your a cheater, so be it. Im gonna beat you on prep- driving ability and teamwork! And we will damn sure beat you on having fun!
remember, this is 2012, everyone gets a trophy in soccer right

Re: Class 5 only
Cant agree with you more! I know I would not want to look at a trophy and know the only way I could win that was to cheat! And if you run the higher rpms the engine wont last, so it wouldent make it benifical to do that if your doing it for cost savings!

It is a silly rule and someone will break it, intentionally or unintentionally - why have it?

Couldn't agree with you more !!! but some were conserned that there would be some dum arse that would show up with some kind of a crazy F1 style 14000 rpm motor , doubt that in class five, so the rule was put there to just to make it clear not to show up with something like that , I mean really kinda doubt that someone would show up with a $90,000.00 2.5 ltr. four cylinder in class 5, besides there is no trans in the world that could handle that in the desert . But thats why we put in in there

I know where you going Pete , 1) Nobody wanted sealed engines , if we wanted them sealed we would race 3000 or 10 . Answer me this, If you had to choose between 3000, 10 or 5 and they all had sealed engines , would you choose class 5 ? 2) Although there had to be some kind of cap , Didn't want to limit an unlimited class . 3) If Pete Sohren can get most of the 5b cars racing over with his baja lights sure does raise the purse and interest in 3000 doesn't it ? just my thoughts

IF i already HAD a 5 car, and i wanted to race AGAINST more cars, (then the few 5 cars that EVER race).......you ALREADY know the answer......................................i thought you guys wanted a CHEAPER engine package that is similar in power to the type1/4 in power, so the guys that want the old way would still be competitive.......my mistake......BTW, are ALL of you guys BLIND to what happened to class 10.......and also what happened to TOTALLY REVIVE IT????.....and just to CORRECT you, class 5 is not now and NEVER has been an UNLIMITED class, DUH........

250hp w $3000 rebuilds every 4,000 race miles in a 5u chassis = heaven. That's all there is to it. You're thinking too much, stop it before you have an aneurism.
Way more fun than super squishy slightly underpowered vehicles IN MY OPINION.
The difference between perseverance and obstinacy is that one comes from a strong will, and the other from a strong won't.
