Rules for the Kicker/Promod Class
Wheelbase: Up to 108" factory MAX, compact trucks are allowed. MUST BE AUTOMOTIVE PASSENGER VEHICLE...NO TRACTORS TANKS OR WHATEVER OFF THE WALL THING THAT CAN BE THOUGHT UP.
Here is basically what is allowed:
Fully plating the frame Stuffing the frame Welding all seams Leaf conversions Sub frame connectors Any motor, transmission, rear end Protectors Braced rear ends
Kickers are allowed.
Homemade bumper rule: Can be 8"x8" max, can have a point, point must be tapered 24" and point cannot extend more than 6" from front face of the bumper (gotta keep it safe)
Exterior MUST keep the stock appearance. Everything has to be done inside the body nothing on the outside of the body.
Guys to clarify on the compacts.....the thought is to give you guys the ability to run those mod cars that are having a hard time running these days.....think more pro mod than full blown outlaw.....no home made frames or cut down frames to make wheel base. And no reason for 10 miles of box tubing in the bodies. Plated frames and kickers....rear window bars and sub connectors are gonna make them plenty hard I'm sure.
