Thanks for posting pictures of Tim. His car made it into the 11's. Pulled heavy tech, came out of the tent, and promptly ran 12.05.

I was one of the 4 '69 H/O 's but I managed to break on Friday. Will back together and ready to roll next year!

Rusty,
Could you explain what heavy tech is vs "normal" tech?

Thanks

The Champagne COPO is a December of 1968 built car and although it is a very nice looking and fast car I beleive it is a COPO tribute car. It was built several years ago and raced at the FAST and Factory Stock event at Martin. Back then it didn't have stripes and had Rally wheels. Please correct me if this is not the same car.

Normal tech is just a visual inspection of the car for safety items and illegal visual modifications. The heavy tech includes a compression check.

Was that Champagne 69 not a Post Sedan?

Re: Pure Stock Drags Stanton 2014

Pair of 421 Super Duty's. The 63 popped a head gasket the third time down the track. Both are fresh builds. Neither car were able to hook up the power with the 8.00x 14 OEM skinnies. Third gear, mid track burnouts on demand!

Re: Pure Stock Drags Stanton 2014
 

421 410HP, 4 speed, 3.90

Re: Pure Stock Drags Stanton 2014
 

Both the Champagne COPO tribute and LeMans Blue post L89 tribute are original small block cars. They are nice looking cars and plenty fast. Here's the Champagne car at Martin in 2009 when it was first done.

Lyndon's car, didn't race, probably wouldn't have made tech due to lack of paint:-)

Everyone goes through the visual inspection. Correct heads, intake, exhaust, carb, and the other visual stuff. Heavy tech is when you do 'better than expected'. They pump you for cubes, whistle you for compression, and pull a valve cover for lift. Also check other items. Tim passed with flying colors.

Thanks Rusty. IF I ever get my '09 put together, that race is on my bucket list. I sure won't be moved to Heavy Tech though. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Re: Pure Stock Drags Stanton 2014
 

I read the rules and didn't see anything about disqualification for running faster than 11.50.

Why would the L-88 Corvette's be disqualified?

Re: Pure Stock Drags Stanton 2014
 

NHRA doesn't allow anyone to run quicker than 11.50 without a roll bar. That is the rule that put four Chevrolets out this year. Race a Mopar or Ford product and you won't have to worry about breaking out at the PMSCDR race. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

Re: Pure Stock Drags Stanton 2014
 

Chevy guy here! Good one John!

PS: Thursday one of Rick M's uber cool Mopars went to fast but it was not part of PSMCDR so he didn't get the boots. (I think it was his 64 race Hemi) Later in the day both Orange L88 Vettes got rowdy side by side 11.2, and 11.3. Again not booted out till they went to fast in the race.

Talked to Scott T. After he uncapped the race Hemi exhaust and took a pass.....scary tires broke loose at half track. Every butt puckered in the stands and cool as a cucumber Tim put her straight and carried on:-)

Re: Pure Stock Drags Stanton 2014
 

Did they change the threshold? I thought it was 11.00.

Re: Pure Stock Drags Stanton 2014
 

Nope 11.5 the whole time:-)
