Why does this only happen in Division Four ????
I don't remember any other Division with this going on.........
Like last year at the Motorplecx...

Hey Larry, i wonder who instagated this tear down, NHRA or some racer running his mouth? I would say the later, don't guess they figured they could be outrun by a legal car!

Woodro,
Jimmy's car (Landry), James Paul, and McClister were picked by NHRA on the 1st day for teardown before they had made a run. I haven't heard anything but that they were picked. Don't know why.

we were told that teardowns were at the descretion of the divisional tech team...

and KUDOS to wesley roberson who instituted THE FIRST (AND ONLY SO FAR) technical inspection regarding this seasons NHRA released RULES on piston and rods...guess the other division tech teams either are not interested in enforcing the rules or have not had thier balls returned to them from glendora

and kudos to the hidalgo's... never bitched, whined, questioned... they simply put a rod in wesleys hand, and continued HAVING A DAMN GOOD TIME !!!!!!!!!!!!!

If only I could have had Bill Mc Clister pull the 4 - 7 swap on the plug wires I think I would just niped him in the lights.

It looks like the NHRA Div 4 Tech dept picked the leaders in the Div. 4 points. It doesn't read that way now because of the 4-23-07 update.
Sounds like a pretty good(fair) way to decide "Who" gets to go to the barn.
So much for the gripe that the winners are not being checked. In Div 4 it looks like the points leaders are good to go.
