Noob--- Explain this to me

Good info.. I wouldn't be trying any of the large events anytime soon... I need to get my some seat and dial in time first..

Sounds like Stock doesn't get much prime time for the crowds...

When your at the track, ask where & when for fuel check & scales.

How do they do the fuel check.. at the tank or engine?

They'll give you a cup and you fill it. Doesn't matter from where. You will have to run divisional events to earn grade points before you can enter a national event. Class run offs are only held at selected national events (you can check on NHRA website to see which ones).

Bob Don, what do you mean by doesn't matter from where? The rulebook specifies that we have have to have a fuel sample valve under the hood. Taking it out of tank is a definite no no.

Anyone have a picture of one and where I can get one from?

Book says the valve has to be somewhere between the tank and carb/injector. You're right about the tank. Sorrry about that. Brain fart. (I'm old).
