That would put my street truck running that class with a stock 400.
This is what i think any truck with a 400 cubic inch small block or bigger or a 500 cubic inch big block or bigger only runs outlaw and the 44 inch class.
1. Outlaw any thing goes.
2. 44 inch class full body truck, full dash, no gutting of the body no nos.
3. 38 inch class full body truck, full dash, no gutting of the body, 500 cubic inch limit on big blocks and 400 cubic inch limit on small blocks no nos.
4. 36 inch class full body truck, full dash, no gutting of the body, 500 cubic inch limit on big blocks and 400 cubic inch limit on small blocks no nos.
5. 33 inch class full body truck, full dash, no gutting of the body, 500 cubic inch limit on big blocks and 400 cubic inch limit on small blocks no nos.
6. street class. must be street legal must have tags and insurance.

Yemassee mud run has been racing longer than most of you have. They have always ran by the same rules , hell at one time you could run any kind of tire in tire size classes. Most of you knew what you was gettin into when you started.

It don't matter if Yemassee Mud Run has been running for 5000 years when you get the volume of trucks that has been coming lately some rules need to be in place to keep it fair and give everybody an equal chance at winning. You got alot of farm boys and people that do this for a hobby and when you got people that have basically unlimited resouces that make the circuit just to take first place money in all the classes and come with big motors pulling 1000 horsepower running against the afore mentioned farm boys. Where is the fair in that. ?

Before u wanted anything faster the 9 seconds to run only outlaw and 44, then you wanted any thing faster then 7 seconds to run outlaw and a modified class, then u wanted any thing with a 400 cubic inch motor or bigger to run outlaw and 44. trucks come stock with 460 and 454 where does that put the street truck at that has a stock 460 or 454, you want them to run that class too. I have 3 of these toys at the house, ranging from a stock street truck to a super street truck that i run in the mud holes. Put tags and insurance on your trucks and run the street class. Every race track has people that complain and that is what causes people to quit racing and tracks to close down. people complain because they cant win every now and then. I said racing 6 years ago on the fast track place 6th place or worst every race never won anything but i keep going back and keep tying and work on the truck tying different thing and guess what 6 years later i stiff dont have to fastest truck in the class the best i can do is get second place the same truck is still beating me. By the way to want get rich at mudd bogging. I broke 1100 dollars worth of parts last month in yemassee for a 4 second ride.

So nostroke460 what you are saying is that the guy that likes to do this as a hobby and works at,say the local Piggly Wiggly,has to scrap and scrounge to buy a part here and there and take care of a family should come and put his truck up against trucks that have 20,000 dollar motors in it and get blown out of the pit. Is that what you call fair!! These are the people that make hometown mud runs what they are.

Which trucks other than 38" and up have $20,000 motors? What do yall think about this, we take everyone who did not finish in the top 3 in each class and have a FOOT RACE,$10.00 entry fee,winner take all? ;D ;D ;D or would yall find something UNFAIR about that to.

I'll do you one better than that, Collins can just send Jimmy and Jason the check for first place in the mail and everybody else can run for second and third. If you're working at the Pig 200 might as well be 20,000.
