Subject: Oil Retention

Hello all,

I have been talking with the NHRA Stock - Super Stock Committee and they are in favor of oil retention device for the Super Stock in 2011 and Stock in 2012. Two main reasons I want them, one is to solve the problem of blowing an engine and getting oil under the tires resulting in loss of control and obviously to help with keeping the oil off the race track.

With that said, there are a number of problems with standard Super Stock and Stock cars as far as fit up and clearance to the frame, headers, starters and the list goes on, along with the ability to service the car.

I am seeking input as far as how we can make these retention devices work for all of us.

Thank you

Bob Lang
