I wanna see a "fastest Daily Driver category".  the driver with the most to risk and where if you shit breaks your SCREWED.

That's what most of the cars entered are daily drivers. There are a few exceptions like the MAXIMUM BOOST brothers Kris and Nate, that have the wealth to afford both a VERY fast DSM and an EVO daily driver. The rest of us drive what we race and don't drive when it's broke.

There is a seperate section for all out tubbed and caged cars. The rest are for all our street driven semi-dependable projects.

[AWD DSM 1]

Would you clarify for me how you are determining a "sport compact" vs other cars? I can see the typical DSM's, hondas, whatever, but I have a little bit of a problem if you are going to allow 3/s cars to compete for trophies, but not camaros, vettes, stangs , etc... What will be the determining factor?

(Not trying to be an ass, I'm not as concerned about winning a trophy as I am making sure the playing field is level)

Here's the problem...Last year we gave out a quarter of our 'Sport Compact' trophies to Domestic V8's. This is all fair except this event is to promot imports and 'Sport compacts' in general. So giving trophies out to non-import/sport compacts seemed pretty rediculous.

Sport Compact Drag Challenge is a title meant to generalize vehicles that most call 'Imports'. This group usually includes domestic sport compact cars. 3S cars are import cars and for one they don't win very often so there is no extra concern for them than any other import in my mind. No offense to those heavy slugs...they have nice interiors.

If all of the DSM's with so much potential would have actually showed up with good running cars last year no domestics would have went away with trophies and this wouldn't be an issue.

Kapeesch!?!

Alright, alright...chill out guys. This is dsmcentral, not CII. We'll have plenty of opportunities to take out frustrations with cars and paintball guns over the next few months.

Wow! This strange animosity is in two threads. I haven't met Troy yet, but I have talked to him on the phone and he seems like a cool guy to me. Messages on web forums can be perceived much differently than they were meant by the person reading it. On the other hand, Troy, you can come off a little aggressive in your posts sometimes.

Lets agree to compromise and meet in the middle so we can avoid the CII syndrome. These aren't rules, but I think they are good guidelines to keeping people satisfied on here.

1. Try not to read so hard into others posts on here. This is something I've had to work on myself in the past. One should only read in between the lines when talking to a spouse or significant other. (IMO, I shouldn't even have to do that  )

2. Try not to be too aggressive with your posting and post things that could be taken the wrong way. And if there is no other way to word it either don't post it or explain that it is not meant to offend anyone.

I posted this in the other thread.

I'll add an addendum here though:

3. If its just some shit-talking to get some races going and no sides are taking any real offense then shit-talk away. (This is more commonly seen on here and I don't see it as part of the CII drama syndrome)

[natedogg]

[natedogg]

Quiet you! Don't make me turn on my admin priveleges and turn off your posting priveleges.

That's gratitude for ya.
