Don't forget the old west coast drain the water out before crossing the scales trick!!!!!

Captain, this is U/SA so I doubt if anyone really cares? But I will say this,if this same scenario happened in A, B, or C/SA it would be front page news and everyone would be jumping up and down. I am shocked that this BS happened in D3. M.J.

jim you are RIGHT but hey that was last christmas a year ago, and a 7 year ordeal to get what ya'll had ... and what good was it i'm the 4-5 fastest U/SA car around ... just a slug !

Looks as though the caddy received 14 HP, and the 302 Ford received 6 HP. M.J.

I will give you that Captain. I know it isn't the first time someone magically came up light at a scale in D 3 to avoid a hit. Maybe d3TV should put a scale cam online

Capt. Jack,
If you knew the man, you would agree that he's not a cheater. Obviously you don't and you're just complaining because you're not fast enough.
That 302 is a $6,500 dime rocket, right combo at the right time.

It would be different if NHRA didn't give 40 loopholes to 40 ford combinations.
In defense of the Captain. He shows up and runs his junk at Indy time and time again and always qualifies.
If your going to throw darts you need to show up and run him. He's a great competitor.

PS give the captain and me 20 plus free horsepower and we will have a field day with our real U cars.

Frankie, I DO know the man and I ain't buyin' that one.

Mark,
1) I also complained about "soft" combinations when I raced.
2) No disrespect to the Captain, he is a great racer.
3) The man in question is simply not a cheater.
