Reply I received back from them today in regards to new classes:
The difference is in the Extreme Modified and Outlaw.

1. Standard Increase in tyre size only

2. Basic Modified 1 form of traction control ie locker. 35inch tyre are deemed a form of traction control

3. Extreme modified is for cars that are locked front and back tyre size to 35inch

4. Outlaw must have roll cage and window nets with helmets.
So from what I read there, I can still run Basic Modified with my 75 series running 35's but I can't use my locker.

If I want to use my locker, I am placed into Extreme Modified.

Thats more than fair I reckon.

I personally think the rules that stand are great.
if i were to use front locker as well as have rear lsd
then how fair is it to the bloke who has front locker AND OPEN REAR?

LSD, LOCKERS OPEN OR WELDED AT THE END OF THE DAY IT COMES DOWN TO DRIVE RIGHT CHOOSE THE RIGHT LINE FOR YOUR CAR

This is easilly one of the best comps going around rules are sweet just add the mod class for 35's and leave it

BUT IF YOU WANT TO RUN 2 FORMS OF TRACTION CONTROL IN THE JEEP I PERSONALLY DONT CARE (IT AINT GOING TO HELP THE JEEP!!!)

It is quite obvious the class caters for people that may not have looked at or known of lockers, open to a group of 4x4ers who dont want to spend massive amounts of money on lockers and lift.

to run 33's on most cars you will lift at least 2inch and most come standard lsd rear so basically you end up with slightly moded
which caters for people new to 4wding and people who have daily drivers or people who dont want to spend massive amounts of money .

Once again great comp, great rules, great park
keep it as is and support the rules rather then tearing up

make it easy for brendan and the other people behind the very fun event and park that they supply all us 4wheelers
I think you got that quote back to front, nearly no one will run an open rear and a locker up front, thats asking for trouble for your front drive line.
A locker in the front of the jeep will go better, in any truck, its been proven over and over.

ill be runnung the 2nd modified class, wotever its called. 1 lsd, no other lockers, 35's in a 60 series. dont see a problem with others using one air locker to my lsd. like red24 says, in the end it all comes down to the driver n the lines chosen. beside who really cares? entry fee is tiny, its all fun, and if we start fighting over it, the comp will dissapear, like has happened so many times before. keep it fun
oh yeah, go team sausage pile.

I reckon Rob needs to live the old snap on datto days and his 60 would drive rings around bruce anyway!!!

if i am thinking right, bruce and rob would be in the same class?

You would be in the Extreme modified class. However if you fit the lockers but don't use them then you would be in basic modified except for the 4" lift.

Otherwise as long as the Jeep survives the Logan Challenge we will be having fun beating some Patrols and Cruisers :D :D :D :D :D

Good Luck to everyone.

Forgive me as I am slightly confused with your reply here. Are you saying that No2 which is basic modifed can only run 33's? Because what I quoted was a direct email from Scenic Rim with the 35's listed as being a form of traction control.

Dont get me wrong, I don't care what class I'm in, I'm coming to have a bit of fun and drive some stuff I haven't driven before and get a feel for comp style driving and what needs to be done. That and I like wearing a mullet :twisted:

TIM It was an example to state the fairness of running 2 traction aids that is alll

plus there are a fair few trucks getting around that have open front and back then decide to buy front locker first

I dont understand why anyone would run 35s with only a 3" lift, thats why I quoted 33s.
Im probably wrong.
