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. :unsure:

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.

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

Also the O5 runs an open motor. Not a crate, so I doubt its the "same" as anyone else's. There are many different combinations of parts that come together to make an engine perfect for a certain chassis, driver and track.. they hit the nail on the head

Like I said it seems like he is on point with everything. When I said same motor I was trying to say that everyone with a crate should be REALLY REALLY close to the same and an open motor SHOULD at least be in the same ballpark beings there are maximum tolerances. He does seem to have the perfect set up and is a great competitor, unlike the #3 modified car who is all over the track with his set up but seems to have one hammer of an engine to make up for the poor set up. Just very unfortunate that #14 late model gets a full body cavity search in his first thought to be win but after a 7th win you get a carb check.

As I stated I totally understand the set up part But many of these racers have a lot of experience and they know how to set up a race car. So to say that one persons car is set up that much better than ALL the other racers at the track would lead me to believe you are trying to cover up some possible engine work that might be illegal i.e. Brezinski heads, lightweight crank to name a few. JUST SAYIN

While we are on the set up subject it is obvious you DO NOT attend the races cause if you did you would undoubtedly see that the #3 modified cars set up is far from spot on when he looks like he's dirt tracking it coming out of the turns. So my intuition would tell me he MUST have that much more motor to compensate for the lack of set up or the #94 car is THAT slow. As far as the #5 SST car, his set up seems to be on point with the way he handles through the turns and he does have great straight away speed which is partly because of his good set up.

Ever think their chasis set up is just that much better? Faster thru the turns means faster down the straights. Just sayin.
