Was extremely shocked and disappointed today as nothing has changed on the car since. 1/2 inch short wheelbase was the disqualification.
Kudos to you Wyatt. This is what I would call a total stand up guy. Went to the barn and told us what they found. Nice job, sorry for the issue with the car.

Is the rule still + or - 3/4" from factory dimension? If so, I'm assuming that his WB measured 106 3/4'?

108. The most disappointing part is my wheel base has passed previously and check by the same guy who checked it at indy. Nothing has changed on my car that would effect wheelbase since.

They pulled several cars aside today including mine.

Mechanical was the throttle body.

They took a very hard look at the wiring. Lonnie spent a lot of time reviewing my global ECU file and data logs of all my Indy runs.

All of the tech guys were very professional.

Thanks to NHRA, Lonnie, and the NHRA tech crew!!
