ill be there for the big 10 shows cant wait to race there!!!!! but still bummed the lamuts wanted to stay on their island insted of getting the latemodel car counts back to the good old days of a full field of 25 plus cars going to be a bummer watching their heat race oops i mean feature haha what a joke

[simracer51]

25 plus cars? Okay. If they did not show up to Erie, what makes you think they would magically show up at Holland? You wanna race, conform to the LAMOT rules. 5 cars at Lake Erie...that wasn't a joke?

[Groundpounder]

No more of a joke than the single digit car counts LAMOT has after how many years now?  If the problem with late model car counts is cost, then it's painfully obvious that LAMOT is NOT the solution.  While I didn't care for his personal attack on Mike Ticco, Mr. Wylie's point that late model racing around here would be much better off if the LAMOT people had been willing to cooperate and blend the two formulas is well taken.  LAMOT is a failed experiment, as is the formula that Lake Erie was using.  How long should those in charge keep doing the same thing while expecting different results?  It sounds like Motordrome is trying something different this year.  Hopefully that works out for them.

For Mr wylie to think that Holland was going to have 25 latemodels like the old days was one of the funniest things I have heard since the late model meeting when they were trying to combine the open late models with the lamots(or LAMUTS as mr wylie calls them) and have the lamots change there cars around so the other cars can come race with them and think they can all be equalled out with WEIGHT.
     At the meeting i dont think there were more than 2-3 cars that would have committed to run Holland weekly and with out a Commitment I can see why The LAMOTS did not want to waiver.If MR Wylie really wanted to race late models he would of put the 602 Engine he has for sale in the classifieds in his car and could have been running at Holland with the lamots,but apparently he Knows that a 602 will never be competive with a 604  no matter what the weight breaks might be.
      So mr Wylie keep dreaming about racing at holland or switch your car to LAMOT RULES (Since all tracks are combining engines and you can also go race at those places) or sit on RACENY and bitch about  LAMOT
like You been since the series started !!!

They can be equalled out by weight they do it all over the country. We agreed to run ur shocks and whatever tire u decide to run. Well the lamot guys were more concerned with the fact that our 604 guys would be faster and worried that Noone would help them. We have offered to help anyone with late models at Holland yet the guys worried about us being so fast never called once. The truth is the guys that came from Erie would be fast whether we had a 602 or a 604 because we work on our cars 5-7 night's a week. As for the 602 I have for sale its not mine it's my car owners and he wants to sell it. The whole basis of the meeting was to make late models work in wny. The Lamot class is going on its 5 th or 6 th year now and car counts are dwindling there to. My attack on the Bennett family and Mike may have been a little out of line but this close minded thinking is getting very old. You can honestly sit there and tell me you would rather race against 6 cars rather than 15 or 20.

Mr wylie the race of champions in oswego only drew 20 cars from all over the state so what makes you think Holland can get 15-20 cars weekly?The whole latemodel (asphalt) series is in trouble.Tracks cant pay enogh in purse money to want to keep latemodels coming back so what the LAMOT series didi what was necessary to continue to race these cars and not loose your arse(thats german for you know what)to continue to rum weekly!.Contrary to what Groundpounder said it is not a failed experiment because  there average car count was equall to or higher than every otjer track in new york running latemodels(except for a couple big money shows)
   So to keep on bitching about Holland and LAMOT is getting real old!If you wand to race a latemodel im western New York get a 602 (thay you can also race at other tracks since everyone is combining motor rules) or keep the car in the shop and look at it say man i wish i could race!
PS:604s and602s have a totally different horsepower and torque curve that weight breaks dont take in account so maybe thats why nobody wants wants to put one in to go race at holland but hat do i know?

Nope no 31 charger. I know our team sold 2 hornets that will be at Holland this summer...

See you at the Big10 meeting Ted

11, 29, 32, and 96 will be back in the Hornets.

I say 15-20 because last Cpl years of the US Open we have had 15-20 cars of local guys. Now this year would have been the trial period to get the rules even for built and crates but it could work. I was at Delaware speedway big race Cpl years ago and they had built motors 602 and 604 crates and ASA 604 crates and all 4 combinations were in the top 5 at the end of the race and they had 48 cars there. I am well aware of the power bands and it could still be evened up with weight. Part of the Lamot concern was spending more money to build the class. So y couldn't we figure it out with weight or different chips or whatever not buy new motors. The point was to at least try it out. Lake Erie failed because they had zero tech and opened up the rules to much. There are still plenty of late models around that by 2014 you could be looking at a 15-20 car field.
I will not buy a new 602 to cone there I will travel with my 604 and run the imca type mod at Erie against 24 cars every week And race for a NASCAR championship. And hey my family has won over 200 races and 14 championships but what do we know. Ps that last part was sarcasm I just want to work to bring late model racing back strong again.
