D1 tech once threw me out for to little compression. Their books showed .004 out of the bore, I was .030 down the bore.
Another time their numbers in the book were off (by .375) for deck height. It would have been impossible to start the motor with their specs. I pulled a piston to show them And the director went through the diatribe about "stocker" pistons not always checking legal.
Went right over his head when I explained these were stock (put in by the factory on the assembly line) pistons unaltered never out of the motor before. And if they were not legal what the heck was.
California okayed it the next week. But I was not allowed to race the race, and they never refunded my entry fee.
