The Eprod race used to be one of the Runoffs showcase events after
the demise of Dprod. From the late 80's to about 1997 the race was
mostly clean and competitive with good sportsmanship.
The conduct started to rapidly deteriorate about the same time as
the limited prep IT based cars were homologated. A whole new crop of
competitors showed up who were used to leaning on each other in Regional
racing. The cars were cheap and quick to build as opposed to the
traditional production car. If you are not risking as much it is easier
to take the risk.
We had a competitor show up here in Eprod with a limited prep car
in '97 for a double national. By the time the weekend was over he had
contacted/hit all of the other Eprod cars and most of the cars in his
group. He did manage to not hit the pace car . He is still out there and
sometimes puts in a clean race.
