Re: nhra question
 

the question here is what about the racers who gets beat by a D Q winner seams unfair to them ?? and i bet most of them have not been D Q before or many times

Re: nhra question
 

You mean like Summers and his mid-70s Mustang?

Re: nhra question
 

Make it understood when Mr. Summers arrives for ANY race that whatever they DQ'd him for, that that area is disassembled so that NHRA can examine and approve the dimensions BEFORE he is allowed to participate--- if it does not pass turn around and go home otherwise if it does pass let him put it back together and go race---FED 387

Re: nhra question
 

Then ,how long does it take to switch to ,say for an example, an 82 HO or 351 carb?

Re: nhra question
 

Well, this is the SECOND time that NHRA has confiscated one of Mr. Summers' carburetors, after it has passed tech at several other NHRA Divisional and National events, and they only tell him it's "Modified". No other Official explanation. Seems to me that they are stealing his parts and not returning them. Tell him he can not show up with that carburetor again at a NHRA event. If he does, do not allow him to run. But, I think it's totally wrong to just take his parts with no receipt or official written explanation. Unless of course if they do provide this. This just really seems like stealing someone's personal property and not giving anything in writing saying NHRA has taken possession of their property. Almost sounds illegal from a law enforcement aspect.

Suggest Reading : the rule book , “unless optional performance equipment or performance-related modification is specifically permitted by this rule book, it is prohibited “ , also 1.6.4 “retention of vehicles and parts “ is good reading. NHRA should publish the details of the violations to serve as a warning to others that may be thinking of trying the same modifications.
