Supposedly he thought he had fixed the problem where the alignment changed with the front being lighter and then the accident happened on the last pass while his son was driving

Yes i guess the secret is out ,i used some racing tape around my hood and
front nose, it cut through the wind like butter,just kidding.I really used some
around the hood because my hood was flopping around in the last few races.

Here is a good view.

Rene and all the 'All Motor' competitors
You need to go in here and voice your opinion. The NHRA is not doing anything to help the RWD's so this is our last hope.

Thumbs up Time to rattle some cages

Hey guys,

Crispeed is absolutely right!

If we want the Rules to be changed to even out the playing field we all need to speak up. I have been trying to contact all the local SoCal "All Motor" guys to hold a meeting and discuss weight breaks and rule suggestions, but this has not happened yet.

We all need to step it up on the Track and get a little organized if we want to level out the playing field.

I have been sending e-mails to all the Sanctioning body Directors/Presidents to review the "All Motor" Class Rules to even out the playing field. But, all of us have to participate if we want these changes to occur. Whether the changes occur this year in 2007 or next year we need to voice our opinions. LOUD AND CLEAR!!!!!

I was going to start another thread only on this topic so it gets a little more specific. As to which changes should be made across the board to all the different sanctioning bodies that host Import/Domestic "All Motor" events.

ok guy's so as some of you might know and some may not ive been involved with Jesus Padilla & Angel Valentin NHRA SPORT COMPACT ALL MOTOR PROGRAM and yes we have voiced our opinion yes we have had meetings with directors and presidents and all the other asswipes that are supposed to be able to do something about it, and what happens nothing they give us 25lbs or 50lbs **** maybe even 75lbs to try and keep us quiet o but dont forget the tranny penalty that puts us back in the same boat still the class pigs.............


RENE i am sorry to get of topic and screw up your tread but i am also very happy to see how far you have come in such a short time with the all motor car and to see that here in cali its really exiting.


the botom line is guy's that all motor rotaries put asses in the seats, they sell tickets but the major sanctions dont wanna admit to it because y should a mazda win the "honda tunning all motor class" the most exiting class in sport compact racing.


anyways count me in for whatever we need to do to try and do to make this work for us and specially for the fans ...

We all know what you're saying but just giving up is not going to get anything solved. The more we're heard the better the chance of something being done to help us out. We need to get more people involved because the greater the number involved the better the chance they will listen.
All motor racers never give up easily. We live for the challenge. It's what we stand for being an All Motor racer!
