Indy Teardown Warning

[HawkBrosMav]

Anyone who actually encounters the process of having the head scanned @ Indy want to volunteer to inform the rest of us how it's actually put into practice....

I'm new to this game, but have been lead to understand that in years past certain things became "Accepted" based on the first head or some other parts because NHRA didn't have an OEM one to spec so they spec'd off the first one through teardown.. Meaning the "scan" could be based on the guy who gets scanned first not the actual untouched head... I have little faith NHRA has sought out each and every head in the book to scan them prior to using this new technology.. I also have little faith the Manufacturer's..those that are still in business would provide them with a CAD file they could use to compare a fresh scan to.. So what are the basing the legality of a scan off of?? They may have picked up scans of all allowable "Showdown" cars as that is only a handful of heads to scan.. but for the rest of us this seems to be a little less enforceable.. I can tell you if my untouched heads are deemed illegal because another car that had heads that had been massaged on gets scanned first, this technology will in fact be useless to me...

just my .02
