Ok guys... still in the planning stages, no dates yet, but you should understand that the face off will be held over time. Might be 2 weekends, might be during the course of a month or longer... depending on how the strategy works out.

With that said, how would you all feel about adding these two activities to the face off which can be used to even the score between say a turbocharged DOHC and a n/a SOHC:

* Corner and Vehicle weighing
* Average of 3 Dyno pulls

The results of which would be used to 'weight' the outcome of some events.

this sounding expensive Embarassed

X2... that sounding like it will get complicated - fast

I suggest we just class cars by engine size NA/turbo etc

Possible NA classes:

D series
B16A/B
B18s
B20s and K20s
H22s
K24s

Turbo and NOS can be simplified to 1 class

If anybody feel they bad and want to run out of class they are welcome to it

Of course we must have a "Fastest Honda in TnT" title as well

I don't think that you could really do a solodex type event without the help of CARSTT, but I think they would be interested and would like this idea.

The Solodex would be for just one day, so everyone would have to be there.

The classes mentioned above would apply, except for the NOS guys, who would be put in the NA engine size class they belong, because NOS and solodex wouldn't mix well.

Things like coil overs and Racing tires usually bump 1 class higher in solodex, so we could use that rule

Another event I suggest is a car show, honestly, some men have cars that are just "fuggin sweet" because of meticulous hardwork... this should be rewarded and added to the overall points total... we could just give everyone who comes to the Solodex event a ballot and let them vote for the car they like (spectators as well)

The problem with that is the man with the biggest crew will skew the results - well, that just means that everyone should walk with a big crew then Very Happy

that could only help the event ent?

Don't agree with the crew thing... I have see cars built by 1 or 2 people that were amazing.

I guess the weighted average would have to be down to power adder or not.... still thinking as to how to get it all to gel. Additional Input and Opinions are all welcome.

Well... This is more for the spectators anyway (and to make sure men have their rides looking tops on the day)

if you every see "Biker build-off" it will be something like that, those guys generally don't care who wins but they have a nice time with the competition... a chance for men to show off what they have done.

I also don't think that everyone will vote for his own car, I think some men may actually see a car they really like and give credit where it is due.

We would also have to have about 10 people from CARS there for such an event anyhow, so I think they will be some of the less biased people voting there.

I think in the end this will be a good thing for the Honda camp in TnT, I really think that as big as a crew as a man will walk with - a car that everyone else dislikes still cannot win.
