Re: Diapers for stock
Hello my fellow racers.
I am not a Class Racer but I do drive a low 9 sec bracket car. The talk about the diaper situation is the same at all tracks and in all classes. I am by no means trying to say anything against a drivers choice to put a diaper on your car or not. I had a pretty bad crash at my home track in mid august last year as a rod decided to leave my engine via the oil pan.. If i had a diaper on the car most likekly I would have simply had a damaged engine. With all the oil flowing from the giant hole in my pan I got way way out of shape and stuffed it into the wall at 140 mph.
This is just my two cents on the fact that a diaper would have saved me a lot of money and would have hopefully prented a pretty serious crash. Just remember that you can have the best engine builder in the world, but they didn't build all the parts in that engine. If a rod cap breaks you will be going for a very unpleasant ride.
Have a safe and fun season.
