If you were king for a day?

First thing I would do as King for a Day is increase the Kings reign to a lifetime term, then I would get a bunch of Frickin sharks with Frickin laser beams to do away with all the King's naysayers. Then I'd make Jake Gulick try to outswim them cause I know he's a good swimmer, then I would make Greg Amy offially change his first name to The. I would also take away 4th and 5th gears from Andy and make him run LRP in an 8hr enduro. I would make Dave Gran race....I would give the Blethens and endless supply of duct tape for repairs......I would break the tip off of Ben Phillips' pen....I would give Crazy Joe a 360 degree bumper for his car like a bumper boat.

LOL, :smilie_pokal:
 
Have you ever heard of open road racing in nevada were depending on safety equipment they give you a target speed to maintain for the whole 90 mile run. It is done on closed public highways and your goal is to stay as close to the target speed as possible like say 150mph. I bet cruise control would be nice for that. :D

I remember the first time One Lap of America used the road coruse at ORP. Each car was supposed to fininsh one lap at an average speed of 50mph. You know what happened when they tried to maintain 50 all the way around!!!!!!!!!
 
Winner.

Limit all cars to a predetermined to a max and a min weight and then also a power to weight ratio.
Buy every region a rolling road Dyno and test every last one of the competitors for that hp to weight ratio.... (EDIT:) AT THE EVENT... after the race.

Same with SM.

Have fun--they call it NASA.:rolleyes:
 
1. Leave ABS as almost every car classed came with it.


Ducking now!!!

ABS at 150 scares me, those systems are not designed for those speeds.


My Kingdom:

Cut the zip ties off the heater core and use it for target practice, same with the water bottle.

Cage rules is open, keeping the current rule as the minimum, include piercing the firewall to allow the cage to extend to where our feet are. (loved the cages this weekend at 24Hr of Lemans)

Lose the side glass.

Any Head and Neck system, though one would be mandated. (Sorry simple safety rule)

Any two way adjustable shock

Any motor/ transmission/ body mounts.

Maybe the ABS on a Toyota isn't designed for those kinds of speeds, but my BMW and Porsche's are.

If I were king I'd make glue on vortex generators legal, kill the lift not the car. Also I'd either remove the front spoiler, or add a provision for a rear wing 10"x48" mounted no higher than 4" above the peak of the roof, depending on which side of the bed I woke up on :p Hey a guy who races a backward falling rain drop can dream??

ps.. I remove my support for Kirk "Tha Kang" Knetis and place behind Rob "Tha Tooffus" Bro

Anybody who knows me will remember my moan about triangulated strut tower braces.

As King, I decree that you may now attach little thingy bars from your stayrod over to your engine cowl....and immediately proceed to go to town with the resulting suspension upgrades! :D

Ooo.. I forgot that one, the dumb washer bottle thingy, and TOTAL removal of heat and AC... 2nd all of those, and I STILL couldn't hit minimum weight.

HAH! You don't have a kingdom. You have an parallel universe!

At what track do you get up to 150?
Daytona, ran out 5th gear, at about 140 with smaller tires. 100+ on a ABS system engineered for the street, I would not want to try it. Driving on the highway and competition driving are two different driving models. Now a new ABS system, off of a newer application (BMW, Porsche, Audi ETC), maybe. But this is IT! And you were king for a day...

And on that note, add remove the 5yr rule to my list. If someone wants to run it let it be so.
 
What car?

Irish Mike (E46 328) was at 150 or better at Daytona. We got close with a draft. My numbers say the Supra could be near 160...

I'd plug the ABS in in a heartbeat if allowed, even on a 20 year old system.
