| now it says lexan for windshield which i know most paved tracks use .. now if i "show up" and not have it will i not be able to run.. like i said i only wanna try it one time on paved to see how i like it and not drop the cash for something gonna use one time .. and if i read correct the wheels are normal street tires and steel rims like if the car was driving on street ....and once again its set up for a dirt track which most things i read are similar except the exhaust. and weight cms requires a min weight of 2400 lbs but whats the manual add 50 lbs? ... and the brakes .. mines only front breaks ( once again set up for dirt ) and whats the feature b main c main ect about not keeping up with time ( aka sandbagging im guessing [/img] |

| You will be ok for a night w/o a windshield. Pay attention to weight and tires. |

| Another question cause I see a lot of people saying dodge neon. Or dodge shadow.. Are Pontiac grand am, Honda civic or Honda accord , eagle talons. ( the non turbo one ) Allowed to run .. Most have the dohc 2.2 or 2.1. Cause on dirt at cms these are always the top finishing cars. .. I know it said some cars cannot be ran. But are any of these. On the no run list ? |

| If you narrow it down to one or two of those I will do a little research and let you know. Someone else that is more familiar (one of our current drivers) probably already knows the answer. Maybe they will chime in. |
