Looks like the natural needs illeagle driving aids to get the job done, removeable blinder and 2 step on steering wheel. Doesn't anybody watch for this stuff?. Where's TECH or is there a rule that says that he gets to do this and nobody else!!!!

I have it saved I just need to figure out how to get it on the cumputer. He talked in the interview about the 2 step being on the brake. If so what was the switch he let go of with his hand? I guess if you are a NHRA sponsor the rules do not apply to you.

The video was actually shown twice. Split screen stock/Pro stock. You see his hand on the wheel and you see him remove the blinder.
In the second run of the tape the announcer asked about the card board and Jeg's comment was that the "Pro Stock car runs on a pro tree (on yellow) The card board is set such that he only sees the last yellow bulb." Would make sense? In fact I actually watched it four times last night to determine how to set it up. If you run races with both types of trees it would be a good idea even if you are foot brake racing on dial in. |

Well, if hes creative in THEORY, He Could have the "Switch" on the Brake Pedal in Fact, but a DELAY Switch on The Release of the Switch on the Wheel....Right ? A second switch on the switch as it were, a lot more grey.....?

Second paragraph. "...single continuous wire from a power source to a switch, and a single continuous wire from the switch to the line-loc solenoid... All switches, buttons, wiring, must be for normal auto use: ie., not intended to create a delay.... (abbreviated). If you are building a car to run in NHRA, you may want to read the rulebook. Might save you from some future embarassment. ______________________________________ Andy Stone 1102 A/S 1112 SS/C |

In the words of Smokey (and YES I actually KNEW him) If its in the rules its in BLACK and WHITE. And his home phone is still in my addy book, he was a MIRACLE ! And PUNCHY as Hell, at the 93 Indy Event you can find Pics of me him and Shelby together, want links or are you capable of looking em up on yer own....? And Leno but he isnt a wrench. AND I will say My stepdad being a main tire eng for GY an Mom being VP till 200X? But shes back on consultancy contract ? , Im not new to Racing, not any form, I choose Mine, it was bikes......and It Failed in UTTER Fashion. So the Simple answer is ? "single continuous wire from a power source to a switch, and a single continuous wire " 3 wires stages in 1 millisecond cutoffs would exclude that rule correct ? A 3 way wired say .020 off each contact would circumvent in a court of law let alone rules. Thats an amazing thing about having your Mother the "VP Records" "Corporate Sec" and about 5 other tiltles to have GY bring back, there are ALWAYS legalitys that can be enforced in a court of law, even with like the NHRA has, Disclaimers....they, like the "No Coat Check Losses Allowed" are useless in a court of law......totally .....people believe them therefore they dont try. Mom, and Shirley M were friends, Mom was also the first person that got me to change form GY to Hoosiers......she sold all her stock options ![]() I am sorry Andy and I AM, Im having other issues 100% of my own making , but Im getting tired of justifying my knowledge or the legal or rule implication of it, like the wiring, if the RULE says 1, think 3 ? Make sense, 3 partial contacts across a silmetaneous plane would not qualify in a patent court, so well......they cannot here , right ?
