First thing I would do as King for a Day is increase the Kings reign to a lifetime term, then I would get a bunch of Frickin sharks with Frickin laser beams to do away with all the King's naysayers. Then I'd make Jake Gulick try to outswim them cause I know he's a good swimmer, then I would make Greg Amy offially change his first name to The. I would also take away 4th and 5th gears from Andy and make him run LRP in an 8hr enduro. I would make Dave Gran race....I would give the Blethens and endless supply of duct tape for repairs......I would break the tip off of Ben Phillips' pen....I would give Crazy Joe a 360 degree bumper for his car like a bumper boat.

Limit all cars to a predetermined to a max and a min weight and then also a power to weight ratio.
Buy every region a rolling road Dyno and test every last one of the competitors for that hp to weight ratio.... (EDIT AT THE EVENT... after the race.
Same with SM.

ABS at 150 scares me, those systems are not designed for those speeds.
My Kingdom:
Cut the zip ties off the heater core and use it for target practice, same with the water bottle.
Cage rules is open, keeping the current rule as the minimum, include piercing the firewall to allow the cage to extend to where our feet are. (loved the cages this weekend at 24Hr of Lemans)
Lose the side glass.
Any Head and Neck system, though one would be mandated. (Sorry simple safety rule)
Any two way adjustable shock
Any motor/ transmission/ body mounts.

Maybe the ABS on a Toyota isn't designed for those kinds of speeds, but my BMW and Porsche's are.
If I were king I'd make glue on vortex generators legal, kill the lift not the car. Also I'd either remove the front spoiler, or add a provision for a rear wing 10"x48" mounted no higher than 4" above the peak of the roof, depending on which side of the bed I woke up on Hey a guy who races a backward falling rain drop can dream??
ps.. I remove my support for Kirk "Tha Kang" Knetis and place behind Rob "Tha Tooffus" Bro

Daytona, ran out 5th gear, at about 140 with smaller tires. 100+ on a ABS system engineered for the street, I would not want to try it. Driving on the highway and competition driving are two different driving models. Now a new ABS system, off of a newer application (BMW, Porsche, Audi ETC), maybe. But this is IT! And you were king for a day...Originally Posted by Z3_GoCar
And on that note, add remove the 5yr rule to my list. If someone wants to run it let it be so.
