Late Model Rule Change Announcement, Lighten Up...
Effective June 1, 2012,
Flamboro Late Model rules will be amended to permit
teams to lower the base weight of their race cars.
The base weight will now be 2750 lbs for both crate
motor and built-motor cars. All other weight
penalties and rules per the rule book will remain
the same (percentages, placement of weight penalties
for straight rail cars, etc.). The weight
amendments have been made to bring the Flamboro
Speedway Late Model rules more in line with other
Late Model division rules packages across the
province.
