To piggy back off of Greg's world record race, sense you will have cars made for it and I don't want them to go to waste. So that being said at the finals race we are going to run this class. Same rules as what Greg has set.
4-BSA wheels all marking must be intact, inside and out. Cut to whatever weight you want. Bearing are permitted and encouraged.
Wheels have to be directly apart from each other, and the non DOM wheel has to be BSA and follow wheel marking rules.
It will be a fun race at the finals I'll have the regular Trophies made for it and 50% of all the entry fee's for this class go to the winner.
We will call it "FAT WHEELS UNLIMITED" (No excuse now Zeeb)
More to come in the following days. Let me know your thoughts.
Get building these wheels Sponsors, I have a feeling this class is going to be HUGE!

I'd like to know before I commit! Common vendors give us a good deal. How many times (monthly races?) can we race it in future?

Before Greg's post on the race I have been wanting to do this class. I plan on making it a monthly class next season.

Whoever won the full fender car Spacewalker donated last month has a big jump on this class. That car was set up for BSA wheels all around.
This sounds like it is going to be a pretty cool class.
Good luck everyone!

Maglev .. We all know the bearings at $60 no way around it.. If you run single axles from a vendor I thing they run around $7 each roughly, a non dominant wheels will be $5 unless you use a junk wheel. I figure these wheels will run around $10 a wheels. I figure a vendor could sale a kit for $100-$110. Maybe our vendors that's sponsor could put some input in toward this class and going forward..

Good thing about this class is there shouldn't be any complaining.. You get a set of wheels , clean the ride edge up, clean the bearing , install the bearing , install wheel to the car.. Done.. No polishing , no waxs, no oils . Nothing .. It become a best builders , tuner class.. Where anyone can do this.. This class will be no more than getting started in SS, SP, Eliminator etc.. Good thing about this class is once your car is together you can run for months. Also when you run bearing and people like SKIPPY, ZEEB, QT are 2-3-4 thousands in the clear it a hard to make that up.. I believe with the BSA wheels with bearing inserts , and allowing fenders, aero the 2-3-4 thousands will be easier to catch by tuning.. This will be a very good class for the league and easy.. If people are worried about bearing cost I'm sure some of these bearing guys have some bearings that didn't pass there spin test.. They would consider selling reasonable.. I personally don't think bearings will play as much a roll as it does now in Unlimited.. The BSA wheel is heavier , wider.
and will spin even with a. Bad bearing .. Ive always wanted to beat Skippy, Zeeb, and QT in bearing now I actually have a chance......🤘🏻✌🏻️😎
