The Demise Of Class Eliminations

Round track racers around the northeast are required to have a screw in plug in the side of the pan so the officials can look at the crank, rod, and piston. Quick way to verify if the correct parts are in there. Just food for thought.

I would much prefer them to put a camera through a cap in the oil pan to look around to verify no illegal grinding/holes in the crank, no aluminum rods and no lightened pistons. If things look questionable they can always have you pull a rod for verification. Its not perfect, but a simple approach to deter the most aggregious cheating. Some cars have incredible 60' times for their class that should raise the suspicions of NHRA tech, this is a tool to address potential problems.

Correct, just a scraper.
