To: All Divisions
From: CNS Management and Tech

Starting on May 05, 2012 All Divisions will have their tires marked by CNS tech prior to qualifying. Teams must race the same tires as they qualified on in their main event. Teams may race on a different tires in their DASH races.

We hope this will help teams with tire cost and help keep the competion on a level playing field.

Thank you and good luck CNS Management and Tech.

After evaluating our transponder rental charges at $40 we felt that it was too high of a fee for individuals that couldn't afford to buy so we are reducing our rental fees to $25 per race night.
NOTE: To all of those who already own their own transponders please be aware that transponders have a 14 hour charge time and it is the drivers responsibility to have their transponder charged properly so they can be accurately scored for the race events.
Thank you -  CNS Management.

We have found the need to have Lexan windshields in the DEMO X cars. A half windshield covering the drivers side of the front window will be adequate, 1/8th inch minimum thickness required.

After looking at all of the information we have decided to retract the following TECH NEWS update:

You will be allowed to run a maximum of 3 spring rubbers per spring.

Rubber hose wrapped around coils will not be allowed.

We will be reviewing this rule again after the 2012 season. Thank you for your cooperation CNS management.

The 602 crate engine for the Super Stock division is a option, not a mandatory rule addition for the 2012 season. There may have been some confusion regarding the new rule so we wanted to take this moment to make sure all the Super Stock competitors were aware that the 602 crate engine is an optional engine package and not a mandatory engine package. We hope this has helped clear up any miscommunication.

Going forward, we have no plans to make this engine the sole, mandatory option.
