Lee here and I will try to follow along and answer questions as best as I can. We don't want these RZR s to turn into the Rhino class of years ago. They turned into completely custom 40k race cars that died off fast. Let's keep it simple fun and as cheap as we can. I do try to answer all my calls and e mails. We are buried trying to get all our off season stuff done for both series. I am totally involved in the big Lucas series as well so not enough time in the day lately.
Yes we are big on safety, i have seen some knarly in car camera stuff. You think your arms head legs etc will never stretch that far? You would be amazed what can happen. Put padding on all those tubes that your body could possibly come in contact with. There are a lot of small details that can be the difference of a simple roll or life changing injury. Mark Turner from Daystar (our first Regional sponsor) rolled a full race SR1 a few years back at a ASCC race in Az.. Multiple things failed but the biggest was the window net went down, arm went outside and Sr1 crushed it on one of the rolls. He is up to about 16 surgeries and probably will never race again. Yes we want the specific latch on the net and plenty of engagement on the rod thru the tab, at least 1"to 1 1/2"of engagement. If it too short the rod will bend and net will fall down. All nets open top front in all class, this helps the safety guys with them all the same.
Arm restraints are $30 let's start out with them and keep people safe.
This class will develop some and we will have to do some minor tweeks to the rules as we learn and until we figure everything out like we did in Trophy Karts. Those rules haven't changed in years.
I had people take the passenger seat out which totally exposed the gas tank, that's why we want a cover if the seat is removed.
No you can't run the Jagged x cams and valves springs. Keep it stock. We are gathering stock parts to compare to and all the tools to check internal stuff. We have the right to take cams and I will have them profiled to check to see if they are stock if needed. Again leave them all stock internals and we won't have to do any of that stuff.
Rock guard/screen is required also.
Mastercraft is our new sponsor, check out their new Head and neck restraint. About $600. We allow any SFI 38.1 restraint now.
We are still working on sponsors and contingency companies as well so more good things to come.
We sent some web updates today and I hope to have the rules posted soon, looks like most of the important stuff has been posted here.
I have had a lot of interest in this class so 2013 is going to be awesome with this class really getting going and growing.

Thanks for the props and letting us build the first one for Michael. We have finalized our pricing and have been able to keep the cost down to $2,695.00 for the entire cage package.
We also carry the seat belts, arm restraints, seats, helmets, gloves, radios, etc. so who ever wants to race this class can make one stop at our shop and go straight to the track and race.

Lee,
thanks for replying back here and getting back to me personally. I know this class is going to be awsome as was the vegas race I got to race at the end of last year. I appreciate all your time and we look forward to a fun year with lucas oil
The class is going to grow big time I personally know alot of racers coming over from worcs so it is going to be awsome. The stock motor is huge and I think it is what makes this dass so great as you said in worcs for example it is turing into a money class! as far as motors mods etc.

Hey Nate,
I talked to Lee today, if we put in the new cam like we talked, that alone will put us into the unlimited class. Not sure if we want to be taking the cam out 6 times this year to run that series. Damn, decisions decisions.

Man spent the last two days on the phone trying to get parts and support, trying to figure out what, secret cool, parts to run, got to be the worst part of racing.
Im alway relieved after the 1st race when it all comes together. Im excited to see everyones cars. It was always fun and imtimidateing, at a Worcs race to look around the pits at the first race.
