I'm just not buying into all this talk about the two classes being merged anytime soon... and until someone picks up a phone and get some facts I would not worry about it.

Why don't one of you guys with all the concerns about the two classes give Tony, Al or Todd a call and report back here what you talk about. It seems that by talking about it here and brainstorming on what we should or should not do is just scaring people and creating a possible false sense of concern.

DD :?

Way off here dude. There are plenty here who have discussed with the powers that be. We're continuing the discussion here as well. They aspire to merge the two. Some like it, some don't. Pro's and cons discussion, that's all. Free country. Maybe we need segregated topic categories.

DD,
How do you run me off in the ditch for what's quoted above?
I don't deserve it.
Not one derogatory comment.
They are all from you.

On The High Road

I have not try to stop any discussoion going on here and never have... but I have tried to get more information on the table and tried to get folks talking among themselves to get info from the upper managment, mainly for the sake of the new folks that are the ones asking the questions and have not heard it all yet.

It was more than a pros and cons discussion, people are reading more into what is going on, or speculating on what is going to happen.

The "Free Conunty" line I felt was a jab... I want the discusion as much as anyone else, I just want more info brought into it and more facts from above!

Then the "Maybe we need segregated topic categories, CMC AI..."

I took that as you thought the AI guys "Me" need to go talk somewhere else! or not so politley, Shut the F up!

Did I take it the wrong way?
DD

No matter what we all know we get a group hug at the next event!!! :D

Just as I would not assume your above statement is an apology, you should not have put words in MY mouth.

If I resort to that type of language, it will be perfectly clear and fro good reason.

in the ditch

Then I do applogise for all of the above, I made assuptions that were not correct.

I have a tooth ache and no meds... can I use that as an excuse!


I still think there is some needed direction from national on what there plan is.

I would love to see a 5 year plan for the series with regards to CMC/CMC2... and how they plan to get there.

Anyone want to see if they can get that out of the West Coast?

thats the problem David, even the West Coast does not know how/if CMC and CMC-2 will get combined. its a goal, but they just do not know how to get there. it will take solutions provided and tested by folks from w/in CMC.
my message was clear (i hope), that the plan is to not leave any one platform out. if that is a possibility, they will most likely keep the 2 class's separate.

It's been discussed more than once since I've been here. During the SPIR event in a few weeks, I plan to bring it up with the entire group, directors and all, with the hope to get it out on paper.

Simply put - CMC/CMC2 needs a "Road Map" that allows folks with existing CMC cars, as well as new folks building cars, to make informed buying decisions.

I was wondering who threw the sand in your panties! Just didn't sound like you at all!


You guys are all looking for a map that will never exist. There is no plan and I don't think they intend to ever have one...just prep your car the best you can afford and if that isn't good enough, sell and go to a cheaper class to run. Seriously, are we racing wallets or cars... If national fucks up the rules and car counts suffer...things will change back. The only constant is YOUR wallets will fund all the changes and mistakes along the way that THEY make. Welcome to racing...something about playing in a sandbox that isn't yours...? :cry:
