Yeah, its hard to understand why someone like Ed Pink would advocate doing exactly that.It was definitely proven this past weekend that slowing down the nitro cars and going back to 1320 is not the answer for less oildowns. But, I think most probably already knew that.
We only had one block in the trailer last weekend. We didn't dump any oil on the track, but we did hurt it bad enough in the first Q-session that we had to spectate the rest of the weekend. But, that's alright we have until March to fix it.
You know as well as I do, Eugene, that the N/FC & T/F guys run pieces that may be on the car a few (!!!) more runs than the guys in the big show... If you slow down the big show guys to get them back to 1320, they will figure out brand new ways to blow up their better gear...It was definitely proven this past weekend that slowing down the nitro cars and going back to 1320 is not the answer for less oildowns.

I hear there was a bit of liver damage generated on Friday...
Actually, we had a new crank and only 4 runs on the rods, and we were only trying to run a 5.95 in Q-1. But, when Alex stepped off the gas at the finish line it broke a rod. We didn't even know it broke a rod until Wade pulled the diaper off and it was full of oil. At least the diaper did it's job and kept the oil off the track. There were a lot of fans at the Reunion and they got to see some good racing.You know as well as I do, Eugene, that the N/FC & T/F guys run pieces that may be on the car a few (!!!) more runs than the guys in the big show...
