Randall, you are absolutely right and that is a real issue for most Racers. But we need to come up with some kind of a "happy medium" between tearing everybody down and the way tech, or the lack of it has been for the last few years

Not a real problem as most races in Div 2 and 4 end on Saturday...even if scheduled to end on Sunday. TIC...well maybe.

No idea on the t-5 to jerico. My cobra jets came with liberty trans as produced from ford motor co. Technology has come along ways in 30 plus years

I wasn't referring to your "Factory Built" SS car that runs in Stock. what's the difference between Capt. Jack running a metric in his car vs. a G-force or a Liberty?

Why do automatic stockers have buttons on the wheel?

I think that tear down should be apart of the participation of STK/SS racing. To this day I carry gaskets and the tools to take what ever the tech person wants to see. As far as no sleep, I can remember leaving the tear down barn at 9 pm and have to be ready to race 9 AM the next morning. BTW that was the days when we couldn't leave the vehicles at the track and you put it back together at the hotel. Maybe got 3 hours sleep and we used nothing but manual hand tools. It was the common knowledge that that is the way it was, too bad if you were on the barn list.

Good question, 2-step switch must be on the brake pedal.
Must be for the delay box.

Tear down is already a part of the stock / super stock classes. Maybe not as much as you might like to see it. Maybe some of that reason is the age of the tech personnel and competitors. I know our tech director in D2 is well past 70 years old and putting in a long day of racing I doubt they would want to do a bunch of tear downs late into the night. This is also probably some of the reason people are not that interested in setting records like they used to be. They did some extensive tear down at indy and found very few infractions so I don't think there is rampant cheating going on these days.

I've never known Harry to pass on a good teardown!
