I’ve been in the tear down barn numerous times thru the many years I’ve raced. If you are scared of the barn, don’t bring your car to the track & race it! I build my motors legal & im not scared to tear down. I have probably been torn down more times than all of you put together.

Gary this was not specifically targeted at you. I have also been torn down many many times and never been tossed. I was told at Pomona that they were going to start tearing down more cars this year,starting with 1.20 under runs. I would like to see this. I was hoping that this wasn't a 1 race deal.

Congrats Mr Summers.

I’m still confused was there a tear down ? Only ask because when we got torn down in Pomona Nhra said all automatics hits will get torn down. Hoping nhra enforces that equally. I don’t know Summers personally but from what I’ve been told I know there isn’t any doubt that his combo is legal but what’s good for one should be good for the others when it comes to automatic Hp hits.

I guess sense no one directly answered my question and there isn’t pictures of the car apart I’m going to say it’s safe to assume he didn’t come apart?

Gary I had both my knees replaced last year one in July and the other in Nov. I was able to race at the Orlando and Gainesville points meet this year..The most important thing I can tell you is make sure you go to Physical Training. Mine was 3X's a week for 8 weeks. They started me 4 days after my surgery. Good Luck

Wish you the best of luck!!! Do what the Dr and rehab tell you to do . I had a hip replaced two years ago and was driving at 6 weeks.. Back to work in 8.. I think a hip is easier that a knee but still listen and do what they tell you to do. It goes a lot smoother in the long run....

A little off topic but that combo is a long way from being ruined. Just sayin.
