We checked the top 5 qualifiers for 1st round.. but did not check til 2nd round qualifying ..They were told (at the scales)to come to tech and be prepared to pull valve cover. In those 5 were 2 regular stockers......We checked carb #'s on the crate motors also...all were good...So if i was running stock , i would make sure i was right ,,,,,,,,,,,,,you never know when or what will be checked.....Also would like to thank the racers for their cooperation on this surprise check....

Sterling, I thought IHRA said as long as the piston had the right configuration for the HP claimed they did not care what was done to the bottom end. NHRA has had some piston parties and I have not seen where any combinations have slowed down as a result. Most NHRA racers have been going faster.

But, did they check to see if the numbers come off with a chisel, almost as if they were made of epoxy?
