read the whole thread. about half way thru some of you may realize i'm not really looking for new wheels. i'm more concerned about the rule changes after the fact.
to fill in the missing info. a local CMC guy bought a set of Forgline's (1 piece RS's i think) for his car. they where deemed illegal after the price and weight were known by the directors. they do follow the written rule, but seemed to not follow the intent. i'm not trying to start a war w/ this post, so if you think that, don't. but i do want some CONSTRUCTIVE feedback whether it be for or against me. i'm also not looking for people to post in the thread there, just wanted to prompt some jabber back and forth here.
i still think a limit on wheel weight is a good idea, just not after the fact. lets keep this one friendly. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Reminds me of what happened to Nick Steele after he put phb brackets and custom mounted penskes on his car. They changed the rules after the fact saying it didn't follow the intent.

NASA really needs to write the CMC rules more clearly so they do match the intent/spirit. I think allowing custom wheels (fiske ccw real etc)would be a mistake and is in conflict with what CMC is about.

Limiting shocks by cost and wheels by cost is a tricky thing because you get into a gray area when people buy things used. I think they would be better off listing te items that are or aren't legal.
