So tonight Motordrome apparently opted to enforce ALL the rules-


Mad Magazine's "Spy vs. Spy" Oh how I love the Tech Garage Spies! I don't really think that you want to wear the "I'm a Cheater" T-shirt. What is real sad is: If they are checking carbs, the guys run roller valve trains. If they check valve trains, guys port heads and when they pull heads, the guys are back to fudging the carbs! But. . . NOT EVERYONE CHEATS!! Instead of spying in the garage and complaining , the real racers work to make the car better. Instead of spending thousands of dollars on "Sprint Cup" cheater hardware for $50 to win/nothing for 2nd, they are spending time with a tire pyro and basic tune-up tools. Maybe, just maybe they can jockey a car too!

Theory=What mechanixwear50 stated. FACT=Three out of five division winners on Friday got thoroughly checked and were IN FACT CAUGHT CHEATING.One of the other two division winners got nearly nothing checked and I'm not sure about the street stock winner. But I'd be willing to bet(better yet GUARANTEE) that if 3 racers got caught THEY ARE NOT THE ONLY 3. So your vision may be a little blurred in what actually jockeying a car is all about. THAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THEORY AND FACTS

Well now, That brings us to the real point. If you got "FACT" about what #3 is running illegal, spill the beans to the racing community! The complete top end was off the #3 in that very garage about 3 weeks ago. Did you spy on that one or are you just selective? It is real easy to accuse and/or insinuate. It's another thing to back it up. Nothing short of a complete teardown every night will suffice to some, especially if it's someone else paying the for the teardown.

Can you back up those facts? Because I beg to differ. Fact is one of the first three wins #3 had this year he in FACT got caught with illegal heads and got a smack on the wrist and was told to remove them and not use them again. Is he still using them? I'm not sure. But it seems funny that on Friday a member of his pit crew was overheard in a pissed off demeanor saying We are not tearing our motor down for tech if they ask We will pack up and go home before we do that. So I guess some weeks they are in a spanking mood and other weeks they are not. So in a recent post I stated JUST BE CONSISTENT. If they are not going to DQ all don't DQ any and let it be a free for all.

jmmr, you are saying about dirt drivers being whinners. I believe you need to reread this post. You don't hear this kind of carrying on, on the dirt tracks because they don't have the stupid rules they run at Motordrome. Motordrome is a joke. But on the other hand, if you people want a place to race you better suck it up as your choice of tracks is slim.
