On T&T events tech is almost non-existent. They check basics such as bottle securely mounted, battery securely mounted, wheel studs, blow down tube, helment etc.. I'm not real up to speed on all the rules but these are the things I know they look for when I tech in.

 

Thanks, that's the kind of info I'm looking for. I need a better battery tie down, but I should have everything else. I've had words with the tech inspector at our local track since he arbitrarily decides what rules to enforce on certain days. It would really suck to get shut down 1000 miles away from home!

 

I can come next weekend if that works.

 

UPDATE Drag bar is on!!! I have the welding burns down my arm to prove it! (yeah I was holding the protective shield over the fuel lines while my buddy welded, I guess i will wear long sleeves next time)

 

Congrats that is an awesome time.

 

Awesome passes man.. Nice setup too... Prob one of the few able to pull off the 200+ hit on stock bottom end

 

We both got the drag swaybar ready for sat! Ready to see what these qa1's will do!

 

Thanks man!

Thanks man, it has taken some time to set up to the plate on the 200+ but I had some good teachers!

yes sir! I expect no less than some low 1.4s to high 1.3s out of that bad boy! My wife can't come on sat so who's gonna be videoing for us? Maybe Bobby?

 

I'll be there taking pictures. Ragan will be filming. You got that drag seat in yet?

 

Pictures are good! No drag seat, I contacted the dude about making me an alum bracket and he never called me back. I'm not into begging the dude so I scratched the idea for a while. Too bad really because he has the same tools as the guys on Orange County Choppers I could do it myself but I don't have access to the alum like he does and I don't have anything that will weld it either. I might give him one more try in a few weeks.

 

You just ned to do the back support to the cage, you can put the seat rught on the back 2 studs, with a couple washers on there under the seat, then just get the angle right and attach a back brace. Summit has some clamp style ones so you can do it yourself and not have to fab anything, I helped a buddy of mine put a kirkey in his camaro and he had a 6 pt already in the car with stock seats... we got it in, no brackets, just that clamp on style back support for the seat. It's pretty solid feeling, passes tech no problems, etc.

 

Thanks! I have a Wolfe 6pt ready to go in the car in the nest few weeks. I will definitely try this.

 

Carter,

I just checked the forecast for today with a high of 51 degrees you are going to have a perfect racing day.

I will make another forecast Carter01 will collect a 9 second time slip!!!! I will look forward to seeing the time slip posted later tonight.

Good Luck and be safe!

N2

 

my guess is a 9.86

 

Tech hasnt mentioned not having a bar yet and you are almost 9s? Lol!!

 

What does the car run without the spray?

 

Looks like your car has quit a bit of twist, after I installed the trz anti roll kit, my car started running lower 60'

went from about 1.49-1.54 to 1.47-1.49 consistent, and believe it or not I cut the stock from springs and the car 60'd a 1.42-1.44 on 255 mt et streets

 

take a good dump
