I by no means want to change to shocks, 3: would have fixed the issue or 150
lbs across the board weight penalty removal for the class, again extra
weight was added while they "monitored" performance of engones but somewhere
along the line the monitoring part stopped and the weight just conveniently
was left......as it will be agin with the weight penalty and "monitoring" of
the 493

Jim,
Yes, I will set-up the poll sometime soon. I don't know of any
other/better way to make a poll available to everyone than via E-mail and a
web-site (the way we did the last one). We constantly asked the folks on
the list to contact classmates that don't use E-mail or Web and proxy their
vote for them with membership # and phone # instead of E-mail (for
confirmation of votes). This, of course, in addition to asking them to
communicate to those that do have E-mail and web access, but don't monitor
"the list".
I'm truly all ears to any ideas for a better process that can be managed in
equal or less time than the above takes.
Shiny Side Up,
Joe Palmer

Thank you, Dan, for reminding everyone on this list that SAFETY is a major
consideration especially in light of the fact that 200 pounds have been
added to the cars over the years with no improvement in the shock
dampening. Earlier I thought that a longer (3") rubber puck would solve
the issue but now I am convinced that a spec., cost controlled, small
size, single body, coil over shock is the best way to improve the safety
of the F500. I think that the only way to find out is to poll everyone
and see what is the prevailing opinion.
So, Joe Palmer, would you please set up a poll so that all (not just this
list) the F500 drivers (RR & Autox) can vote and we will see which way to
go. Each voter can only vote once and must ID himself.
Jim
