Hello all. In the past few days I have gotten numerous emails, phone calls, text messages and the big issue is stringent tech at NTR. Im emailing Sean Ryder (BPG Chair) about the issue, about relaxing the roll cage rule due to the following:
1. Most of the turbo cars are street driven, fully licensed and insure street legal , full power optioned scars that are only raced at a few events a year and usually all of them Buick.
2. Cars are now 25 years and older. Harder to find parts as well as the main fact these cars are becoming too collectible, too rare and too nice to cut up into a bracket car with a cage and all that mess. We are talking about Turbo Regals not 73 Dusters!
I wont cut up mine and therefore will never ask another to do it to their car.
3. Our attendance is from primarily the Midwest and East Coast and down South. More people have emailed me saying they would come up and bring their cars as well as tell their friends to bring their turbo cars if rules were relaxed. I am going to give a full court press to relax the rules b/c i feel most people will be putting their car in the show and race as well. no sense in bringing your car hundreds of miles just to put it in a car show. hell its a turbo regal!
Most of the owners i would say like to go to car shows, polish them up bolt on slicks and then run 11s or 10s and go home with the a/c blasting. That is the Buick tradition! Most owners will be doing double duty showing and racing so i want to bend the rules a bit to get car count up and to satisfy most enthusiasts desires that is to have their car in the car show and honored and also to race it as well.
4. Ill be beating down the doors for vendors this coming week. Im going to make a separate post about my ideas for 2011 BPG T party and want you to tell me if you like the direction i am heading in. If im doing something that sucks tell me ill change it! I m not a mind reader so tell me your thoughts, complaints questions and vote. We cant fix it if we dont know about it! Keep it coming!
