    Underhand is a "maybe", there's only myself and Boogieman142 doing any chopping up here. Hopefully we get a few more people willing to chop, if not it may be just an exhibition.



    Here's Morristown on Mapquest...........

    Here's the rules we came up with for the chainsaw racing............




    2009 Morristown Fireman's Field Day
    Competition Rules & Regs




    Chainsaw racing

    General
    Time starts at the "go" signal, and ends when
    The last disc is severed.

    All classes will make 3 complete cuts within 6 inches.

    All competitors must wear safety chaps (hearing and eye protection is recommended)

    At the start, the saw must be sitting on the ground, competitors hands on the block.

    Work saw classes will be hot start (saw idling on the ground) modified and hotsaw classes will be dead start.


    Work Saws (two classes, 0-60cc, and 0-100cc)

    All safetey equipment must be in place and working (chain brakes, throttle locks, ect)

    Choke plates must be in place, and work as the manufacturer designed.

    saw must idle with the chain stopped

    Gasoline only

    No two piece heads

    No tuned pipes



    5 Cube Modified Chainsaw

    Must be a serial numbered production chainsaw, less than 5 cubic inch (82cc)

    All descisions by the judges are final. Judges may rule out certain practices that attempt to defeat the spirit of these rules, though it may comply with the letter of them.

    I was talking to troutfisher earlier and if theres enough people then maybee we could do a "homeowner" class or a "antique class". I was thinking for homeowner smaller than like 45cc rear handle saws and for antique something like first year model run 1970 or older. If anyone is interested in either of these let us know.

    I sold Cale my stock one with a pipe. It's faster than anything 99% of the guys here have, but the slowest one I had. BTW, I still have three left. Maybe I'll bring the YZ125 I just finished up.
