Re: NHRA Mandated Collector Tethers? WTF?
I watched a collector come off at Atco. Bolts were in the tabs and tight. The weld on the tab failed. The collector got under the tire and launched into the spectators legs. Two hurt, one seriously. Rules like these come around because a lot of racers don't check jack. And then when there is a spect...

The welded frame section is pretty easy. We do all the hard work. If you follow the instructions ( and I think ours are extremely thoroug...

Re: Congratulations
Thanks guys. My only regret is that I'm in Florida and didn't get to attend the banquet. But he sent lots of pictures. Also only the drivers who are members of the circuit (Mid-Atlantic Super Comp Association) are allowed to vote so it truely is an honor bestowed on him by his fellow drivers. I did ...

Re: set engine lower in ladder bar car need set up help

Re: set engine lower in ladder bar car need set up help
which hole the ladder bar is in is really irrelevent. What matters is the position of the bottom bar relevent to the ground. Is it down in front, parallel to the ground, or up in front? simplist way to explain it is - imagine a big carpenter's squre running along the bottom bar. At the front rod end...
