Default Re: Heads up

Some of you may remember Don Carter from South Carolina who ran C/SA in the nineties with a red 69 Nova, one way to remember him is he looked like one of the Oak Ridge boys. Anyway Don had a headsup first round at the GV divisional in that period with some one who had him covered a bunch. I asked him in staging if he had a plan and he stated he was going to pray, the faster car broke in the water.

How does engine temp play a factor? I see everyone putting ice on the intake and fuel regulator, pushing their cars through staging. What is an optimal engine temp?

Many, many years ago Lee Bannister was kicking Azz and taking names in stock eliminator. Lee usually qualified near the bottom of the ladder and one year at the Gators he had a heads up with a much faster car. The faster car just blowed the tires off at the hit.....Lee must know the same prayer....
