Just found this thread and had to post, as this is one of my favorite subjects. I have to say, Ed is 100% right here. Laurie please don't hate me for saying that, because you are also completely right. The problem with OSY-400, is that it is in no way OSY-400, other than the fact that it is a Yamato class. It is, however, very, very similar to CSH. Close enough in fact, that I am surprised APBA's BOD has allowed the class to continue as it is. We are not supposed to have duplicate classes. The fact of the matter is CSH belongs to Stock, and the existance of OSY hurts our numbers, while breathing false life into the PRO category. If OSY is going to be run, then why on earth would it not run under U.I.M. rules? The idea of OSY as it is in America is totally ludicrious. The guys in Europe probably laugh at all those silly Americans who think they run OSY. We ought to be running OSY under strict UIM rules. Think of the possibilities that would grant us. We could have a World Championship in the USA. It would acctually give us some legitimacy worldwide. APBA doen't really do a lot on the world stage, OSY could be our opportunity to change that. To tell you the truth, I really can't figure out why the entire PRO category doesn't run under UIM rules.

So you are going to quit CSH, which runs all over the country, all year long, with almost full fields everywhere you go. And instead run 125ccH, which you will only race 4 times, against maybe 4-5 other guys, and if your luck all of you will finish. Oh, and a 125 rig probably costs twice what a CSH rig does. That makes a whole lot of sense. If PRO is so much better than Stock, then why are their numbers so low? Why doesn't everyone run PRO?
I am not trying to knock the PRO category, just making a point. I think that the pro's are super cool, but there are reasons that I won't be driving them any time soon.
First of all, Ryan, there is no room for hate here. And I don't disagree with you vis-a-vis the UIM rules.
It was my understanding that OSY was looking for a home and couldn't find one...
weight, no weight, WHATEVER...
More importantly, Ed Hearn is freaking out somewhere cause you said he was right!
WWRRD?
