Pat, Zip it already. I don't rig anything, if anybody knows that, you do. I'm not going to set the rules up for anybody in particular, including you. The big concern is who is going to show up to pull. My suggestion would be for everyone to just plan to be there and support the event. Being that there is virtually nothing else to choose from down here, maybe we should all get on board and just pull.
My goal is to create some classes where lots of people have a shot at the purses. Quite honestly, I am somewhat reluctant to gear the money classes toward off the street, "work stock" trucks. Frankly, most pulls out here don't have a purse at all, so I don't think the entry level pullers should be overly concerned about the purse. The "competition" level pullers who invest large sums of money and time in to pulling, deserve a class with good competition, regardless of brand, and a shot at the purse, it just adds a nice element to the competition.
So, all that being said, Pat, back off, and just plan to show up and pull. Regardless of the rules, you will get to pull against trucks similar to yours and have the opportunity to show them up, so whats your beef? Don't answer that, just be there and quit stirring the pot.
If anybody has any questions or suggestions, feel free to direct them to me, do not let Pat sway your decision on what to do. I am a fair person, everybody will be treated fairly. I know that the rules will not be ideal this year, there just isn't enough time to put this thing together with all the classes to make everyone happy. Just show up and pull, so we can have more opportunity in the future.
