Broke the Jerico again! Larry has it out and has taken it to Jerico who is a mile and a half from here! Not a happy camper!

Just called round 2 of class back up

Re: "Live" from Z-Max 2014
 

What did he break this time? He sure has had alot of trouble for a new trans with less then 25 runs on it.

Imput shaft twisted in less then 20 runs
broken finger in less then 20 runs

l guess iam not the only one with Jerico troubles

Re: "Live" from Z-Max 2014
 

Seems like a lot of people are having trouble with their Jericos lately.

Re: "Live" from Z-Max 2014
 

Sold my Jerico yesterday and have buyer for my spare parts. I'm done with jericos.

Re: "Live" from Z-Max 2014
 

That explains it.For a second,I thought maybe Larry was trying to see if he could get some horsepower off of that combo.

Their quality has gone down hill, pick up the phone and call Leonard Long at G-Force in Pa

Here are some photos from the first round of class in the staging lanes. Still no rain, but very warm and humid. I know some of you like to know the weather numbers, here are the numbers for first round of class. It was about five slower then the early morning shot.

Temp 91
Humid 44%
bar 29.39
DA 3700
water grains 105
wind light cross

Pros are running the last qualifying for the day, and Super Stock, Super Classes should be out after they are done.

Re: "Live" from Z-Max 2014
 

Larry, put old faithful back in!

That one you have should not have broken.

I love the Jerico stuff, but I fear there is not the level of QC that once existed there.

Re: "Live" from Z-Max 2014
 

Jerico is only 2 miles from the track, and Dad personally delivered it for "service" work.

I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall when he was sharing his concerns for the transmission.

If a v6 stocker can break items, I'd had to see something with real hp and torque.

Re: "Live" from Z-Max 2014
 

Scott at Jerico did an exceptional job replacing the finger and checking out the transmission and replacing shift levers to the shorter ones so I won't have as much mechanical advantage over the shift fingers. I showed the broken part to Rick and suggested a radius be placed at the bottom of the cut to add strength to the finger. Jim Marshall and I had it installed back in the truck in less than 30 minutes. I race Don Fezell in the morning and that's what the crowd enjoys. A 5 second spot! Thanks Jim for helping!
