Well we are on our way home! Just 3 hours so will be home by lunch time! The weather looks to be great again today! Good luck to all remaining competitors!

And congratulations to David Barton for winning the overall Factory Stock championship! He wrapped it up after winning first round yesterday!

As far as the new "no tech" at national events go...all winners in ss & stock were gone over with a fine toothed comb last night. Very thorough inspection. Kudos to the tech guys.

On the FS1 replay you can see some fluid spraying out the right side onto the tire.

Brett C is spot on as usual. After rd 4 of stock all winners were carefully scrutinized by 4-5 tech officials. Under the hood, seats, rear trunk /cargo area were all checked rather thoroughly......

What wouldn't be fair is: What happens if they find something illegal in Rd. 4 ??
The guys they beat along the way kinda of gets screwed then.
It's good that their checking cars, but you wouldn't want to lose to that car in any of
the other 3 rounds & than they find him illegal, cause the losers won't get re-instated.

I don't think that anyone here thinks that this is "right". However, it dispels the thought process of no one being checked thoroughly at all at any national event.

What's to prevent a guy from teching in, then changing things before eliminations and not getting caught? People will cheat no matter what method is out there. Seems to me random tech inspections may keep the racers on their toes a little bit!
