Re: Flat tappet lifter failure
Bubski can't believe this crazy train has derailed into a no "heads up" no performance based category !! Now back to lifters !! Imagine adding to the vegetable soup of stock classes with additional classes for cars with or without roller lifters ?? Bubski would like to present an example of this fine mess being pushed in Stock !! How about rU/SA the "r" being for the roller lifter designation !! Sooo!! how about f-U/SA ?? pretty self explanatory I believe !! The f-U/SA class will be 6 rounds at any class racer if they do this just because !! Cheers !!

Sorry Bubski but I can't get behind *-*/SA, it's too close to something some woker would say for me.

The problem is getting lifters that will last. Coating does not work. Tool steel on certain cams won't work. Seems only thing that will work (sometimes) are 15 year old lifters that are not available anymore. |

So on the other side...I read a lot here that stock is a dying thing..only the old guys are still running it. How do we get younger..how do we save it? Personally I'm fine with it just the way it is. I continue to work and spend to trying to get better and faster...but..I think if you talk to 100 talented bracket racers (sorry I used the "B" word" They will tell you..OK so I'm driving good, I'm dialing good and I lose third or fourth round because I had a heads up I didn't have a prayer to win. Its just food for discussion.... |

Having Stock and Super Stock a heads up in class only would be a slow death to the sport to try to cater to bracket racers to be interested. They arent coming in even if it went to that. |

I would think with the new solid lifters allowed rule a better ceramic lifter could be built as they wouldn't have to allow room for the plunger, just a thought. |
