Grade points at Div...

[Chris "drooze" Wertman]

Lol....Its a Q (17.98) so.....I dont think it needs a bar...lol.

2004 only had 1 engine the 215 hp soch 6 (now rated at 250 who can I yell at for rating this up ... (no Im not serious)

So Pacifica it looks like, Ill run her outta gas and somehow figure out what fuel it will run......but with the CD changer and the car being as slow as it is I should have time on the track to listen to 3 or 4 cd's

And yes if I go though the trouble of teching it why not try and cut a light or two

Tony, I saw you there. Did you tech in a car to get a grade point?

Yes The Pontiac is in the class guide and runs N/SA

There is another thing about Super Street grade points. They are only good for Super Street.

I doubt you'll need to pass fuel check to get a grade point, but if you do I don't see how they could deny you.

After you run it out of fuel, you'll need to run race fuel through it a few times to try to get rid of the residual unleaded gas. It still may not pass and you will have to a few more times.

Also, fuel check will probably be a two man job. One person to hold the fuel line and cup and the other to work the key.

I thought you could apply your super street grade pts to super gas or super comp. The Shipps ran in Super Gas at the US nats in 2009 and run heavy in Super Street at the D3 races.

I guess I just try entering multiple classes at the D3 Indy race and let you know the turnout. If they don't let me enter another class at Indy without a vehicle, then I'll enter my nephew's daily driver bone stock off the lot 2001 Dodge Dakota and have it fail fuel check to see if I get a grade point in Stock.

A few years back in div 3 a few races were renting cars a driving them to the track so that could earning grade points in SS and STK while there new cars were being put together. Some older SS and STK racers soon started to bitch about this. So the next time they showed up at a div 3 pts race they were forced to make a pass and pass fuel check in order to earn a grading point. These two people show up payed there money and failed fuel check and never showed up with a rental car again.

Also all rear wheel drive cars must have a drive shaft loop

You can use S/ST grade points for any other class but can not use any other class to get into S/ST only S/ST grade points to get into it. I entered the Winternational, Phoenix and Vegas a few years ago with only S/ST grade points for Stock it was myfirst year in a stocker.

Once you pass tech you get the grade point. You do not have to make a pass, pass fuel check or the scales.
When you turn in your tech card to the trailer you have got the grade point.
The nonsense about fuel check etc. Can't hold water. How about if you have your car all tuned and ready to go you go to make your 1st run, and you destroy it in the water. Of course you never get to the scales or fuel check.
Are they going to deny you the grade point?
Pass tech, hand in your tech card and you will earn your grade point.
But here in Div 2 they actually look at your car during tech, you can't just bring a tech card up and get it signed, like some other places.
