Seekonk Speedway Wednesday Rules Meetings
On Wednesday, October 29, Seekonk Speedway held rules meetings for the Pure Stocks, Late Models and Pro Stocks. There were no changes made that were significant in any of the divisions. Here is an overview of changes:
Pure Stocks:
* There was a clarifcation on the starting position of the previous weeks winner. The previous weeks winner will start last in the next event. He/she will start behind any cars that were not here the previous week and behind all cars that did not complete qualifying.
* There was also a clarification of the frame height rule. It will be 5 1/2″ at the lowest point of the frame. The height will no longer be taken at the seam welds.
* Driveshaft hoops are mandatory. They are to be 2 1/4″ x 1/4″, and there are to be three of them. See the 2009 rule book for details.
Late Models:
* The only change will be for the allowance of the A.C.T. cars to compete with the ARC rules will be from 2 events to 5 events in 2009.
* There will be NO changes to the chassis, suspension, or drivetrain to the cars in 2009.
Pro Stocks:
* The only change will be the allowance of the slab sides for the bodies. This will give the bodies a more customized look and will help int he visual aid to help differentiate the Pro Stocks from the Late Models.
Again, please refer to the 2009 rule book for any clarifications when it is published.
