Re: IHRA Tech at Pittsburgh
They need to look at bottom end not top.

Re: IHRA Tech at Pittsburgh
They did the same thing to us at Bradenton this year. Half of the cars checked were non-crate motored cars though (including me). Everybody was good. Good to see this! Jim

Re: IHRA Tech at Pittsburgh
I believe Jim Woods has been a driving force in getting back to spot-checking cars. Jim will be one of the Tech officials at the Northern Class Nationals next spring, along with Danny Waters, Sr. and NHRA Div. 3's Donald Braun. (and probably 1 or 2 more guys)

Re: IHRA Tech at Pittsburgh
Sterling,
You are right , also PS should be checked & torn down ? If they pay to play and win the same amount of money then they should be part of every-teardown ... If you Win you should teardown along with RU. IHRA should invite everyone at least once a year to teardown ? Then everyone can see how much Fun it is when it's 95 degress ? I also agree with Jeff Ross , they need to start looking at more Cars / things ??

Re: IHRA Tech at Pittsburgh
So a crate motor car is a bracket car?.....
This is the same old song and dance I have seen on here for years.... I guess a fast CM car is illegal... Why isn't a FI car or a natural car that's fast be considered illegal... Why don't we suggest the fastest CM car and the fastest FI car , PS, and natural classed car tear down at every race from now on.. Then we can all see what's done in the bottom end of those cars.... I'm not implying that every crate motor car is legal or illegal but u can't guarantee that the other classed cars are also.... We have put a stock meaning out of a street car short block with junkyard untouched vortec heads and a aluminum intake with a Holley 750 and went 6.80s at 3200 lbs would not run good in the 1/4 mile with me it went 11.07 but with a 130 lb driver it went 10.56.... As far as tech between N and I,,, no difference besides N looks at the same car and same stuff everytime u go to a race IHRA just does it at the first of the year... |
