Re: "Not Live From" Orlando, NHRA Lucas Oil Series
Radar looks pretty dismal down there, hopefully they will figure a way to get it in. Anybody have an idea of the car count??

Re: "Not Live From" Orlando, NHRA Lucas Oil Series
Has rained off and on most of the day. As soon as the crew gets out and starts drying the track it rains again. Lots of time to socialize and bench race though! After talking to Rich, the D2 Director the plan seems to be one hit in the AM and go right into eliminations trying to get it all done. If if just can't be finished, it will be completed at Valdosta. I met and talked to Keith Fulp with KFM. Great fella and he is making the tethers right on the spot for racers. The guys from Header Tethers Inc. are here also but I haven't gotten over there yet, Tech has been tossing everyone without the tethers but so far haven't enforced the etching on all pieces of the units. I already had mine and informed them I had my receipt but they didn't care to see it. They are pretty much taking your word on who the manufacturer is. Very fair I think. More later. Jim

Re: "Not Live From" Orlando, NHRA Lucas Oil Series
How are they checking welds for those that welded versus use tethers? I welded my collectors by the requirements.

Re: "Not Live From" Orlando, NHRA Lucas Oil Series
Cooter, I never really saw any of the tech officials get down and look at any of that. As I said before, they asked you if you had tethers and what brand they were. I'm guessing they took your work on it if you said you had your tubes welded. Jim

Re: "Not Live From" Orlando, NHRA Lucas Oil Series
How many collectors did the tethers keep from falling off?
