Jerry, very soon I will be working the lcass rules for the WFC5, and I will be surveying the members as I do every year for some input. Most likely will happen in the next few weeks, I have to see when they are going to make the rulebooks.

I really think maybe we need PRO to be 13 and faster.We had alot of guys thinking they could run alot better than that and when they got to the track they couldnt run the number.

I like the heads up idea. I know its not a reality but it would be cool to drive 30 miles and lay the Smack Down with a 7 second pass.......ooo....its true

I agree, 12.99 and faster go pro unless you want to make it on a pro tree! Then I'll stick to street, or wish the bracket would be like Raymond said with 11.99 and quciker!

Main reason, is its hard to foot break on a pro tree if not everyone is is foot breaking! Tranny breaks are a big advantage for reaction time!

My 0.02 worth!

12.99 and faster for Pro. That's what I wanted last year, too. Everyone told me I was nuts and that there would be SOOOO many Gen 2s running in the 11s by then.

How many trucks last year would've been in Pro if it were 11.99? One. Uno.

If it were up to me, I'd overlap the classes. Make it 12.00 and slower for street and 12.99 and faster for Pro. That way the guys in the 12s can decide which way they want to go. Make Pro class Pro tree and Street class a normal Sportsman tree.

All just my nickle, of course.

I add my two bits...

Pro Lightning should be 12.99 and quicker, run on a .400 Pro tree.
There are alot of trucks that are in the 12 second range, but not deep in the 12s to make it a 12.5 like last year.

Street Lightning should be 13.00 and slower run on a .500 Sportsman tree, not a .400 like last year.

If the cut is made at 13, there will be more trucks in the Pro class, other than a couple that only have to make a qualifying pass to take home the money. I can't tell you how exciting it was to watch one truck make a bye-run into the finals last year because there was not anyone to race.

Hey guys let say you dont have a roll cage in your truck.What if you go to WFC and on one of your time runs you run a say a low 10 will you be DQed from the race or be asked not to run faster than 12.0?
