Here is another link for the Quick 8. Missed the last 2 run's of the first round. I was running my buddies car for him.

Good driving Doug. It was a good day. Went out to play, and went home with a 1st place plaque.

thank you.

Saturday’s event was fun and the quick 8 went well. Thanks to Top End and Playtime for making that happen.
I am wondering why the original Quick 8 rules have been modified.
http://www.fargostreet.com/forums/showthread.php?19392-Quick-8-the-Street-LegalsMy bro came with 28x10.5 ET Drags and was told he cannot compete with those tires in the Quick 8, so he had to run drag radials. I believe he purchased those to comply with original Quick 8 rules. I am also wondering why the AWD and FWD cars have no tire width restriction? Are DOT slicks still allowed to be 28x12.5” width? Mickey Thompson’s ET Streets (bias ply DOT slicks) minimum width is 10.5”. Just wanting to get some input and get a little clarification as I am planning on buying some DOT slicks.
Look forward to future Quick 8's. -

Look forward to future Quick 8's.Here are the simplest answers I can make for your questions:
-
The rules information was not transferred correctly to the Q8 handout we have been using for 2011. The handout says 28x10s are the limit, so that's what we've been using. That will now be changed BACK to 28x10.5 for the remaining 2 Q8s of 2011. Have your brother bolt em back on and bring it back.

IMHO, FWD/AWD are at a large disadvantage when leaving the line. (Am I really hearing big turbo v8 guys crying about the little imports?

Yes, we will run the remaining Q8s of 2011 with the same rules that your link is showing.

Referring to AWD cars, I would say exactly the opposite.
Great job on saturday Guys. I have been attending these events for a long time and would have to say, that was the smoothest running tintmasters event yet. Keep up the great work!
