Re: Jeff Lee DQ'ed
Jeff, I'm not trying to start anything but why are you running a 96" rollout tire in a class that has a 94" rollout maximum?
Randy Hastings K/SA 6225 |
Re: Jeff Lee DQ'ed
Randy, the tires are imprinted by the manufacturer at 94 inches and that is acceptable,,,,besides its too hard to measure the rollout when the tire is spinning at 120 mph....................

Jeff, thought you were staying in SS and had the car all cut up from past posts, messages, etc. Guess that's what I get for not staying in touch :rolleyes: Just glad to see you back out there again no matter what & giving us all some hope not to give up. |
Re: Jeff Lee DQ'ed
Congrats to Jeff for getting the old hotrod back out again.
Classracer is better forum without 1320. Cheers |
Re: Jeff Lee DQ'ed
Randy, it sounds like you are. Calling him out on a public forum, then stating your not trying to start something is pretty disengenious. Ed was pitched for that, you could be next.

Re: Jeff Lee DQ'ed
just for the record I watched jeffs q3 run from the track web cam Friday morning and it wasn't 20 minutes of down time , yes the safety truck came out and checked the track and stopped at the 1000' foot mark or so for a minute ,then came back and racing resumed ,, from my seat (web cam) there was minimal smoke , I have seen a lot worse from cars that the rings where falling out ,, seams like he got the bums rush ,, but for the first time out and the car was respectable ,the effort is commendable none the less ,,,build on what you did over the winter ,be ready for spring gmonde

Re: Jeff Lee DQ'ed
I checked the roll-out. One is 93.25, the other is 94; the one on the right which is the side that is pulling. Guess I'll have a talk with Hoosier about that since I bought them from them direct.

Re: Jeff Lee DQ'ed
Wow. 3/4 inch rollout difference will make your car very unhappy, went thru the same thing with my sons bracket car a while back. Glad to see you're out and running. On a side note concerning 1320's ban, It's no secret I've got no love for the guy but a total ban does seem harsh. Granted he's belittled and enraged quite a few on here (myself included) but MAYBE he just needs a "time out". Honestly don't care one way or the other, but given a second chance he MAY have something constructive to add....I'll stress MAY! Again glad you're out racing and I'm sure you'll over come those first run gremlins. Joe BTW we tried the "stretching" deal on my sons slicks, best we got was 3/8 in. Thankfully, Jegs took them back (even after being run a weekend) and gave me full credit. Guess it does pay off to deal with a company founded by racers.

Re: Jeff Lee DQ'ed
Jeff, you now know first thing to do after mounting tires is air equally and measure before putting on car. 1 might need strtching. I have my slicks w 3/4- 7/8 difference. Car was all over and a stocker racer taught me this valuable lesson. Bought from mail order, dont remember who.
I don't believe in banning, time out maybe. Suspension, maybe. Either or is fine. I had it happen too here, as I did not read rules of sale section and was suspended 2 weeks. Thank you for letting me back on my favorite site. I do not condone what Ed said, nor have any knowledge of Hemi Moose actions, Those are the 2 bans I know of. I don't hold grudges, but watch what I say sometimes, lol. Back to subject at hand, Jeff get'er done and good luck in 14... I hope those I look up to on this site do not begrudge me now. Chris |
