I think you are suggesting that some racers will enter 1450 when they should be in 1400. Has this been happening in past races? Why? At MORE, both 1450 and 1400 entry fees are the same and race for trophies.
Maybe I am missing something.

I agree, there is a separation in MDR between 1400 (pro) and 1450 sportsman) classes. you MORE guys want to keep saying our truck is illegal, maybe for your rules it is, but not in MDR. but if MORE wants MDR 1400/1450 trucks to race in thier series then some adjustment could/should be made. We can race DRIVE also with our trucks

You could leave the MORE rules as they are and change the number on the truck. For example, if you were 1456 in MDR and linked then change to 1426 in MORE.

Yes, what you are missing is folks want MORE to change the rules to accommodate 1450 trucks that raced MDR 1450. The rules are not the same.
If anyone needs new numbers for this race I have a vinyl cutter sitting next to my desk. Email the color and size and I'll make them for you for a small fee.

Jim is not likely to change the sportsman truck rules. However, does it really matter. MDR 1500 can enter MORE 1450 and the MDR 1450 racers can just enter MORE 1400. In fact, I will not be surprised if several of the faster MDR leaf spring trucks enter 1400 for the competition. I know how much they like beating their friend’s linked trucks.
Can a leaf spring truck enter MORE 1400?
