GENERAL

Since the goal of this division is to blend a wide variety of limited Modifieds into one competitive class, rules may, from time to time, be adjusted to address over-competitive types of cars. In the event car counts are such that a further sub-division of the class is necessary, steps will be taken to address that situation. This can best be described as a “work in progress” which; with support from interested racers, we are committed to making a success.
