Red face Re: What Do You Think About This?

Don't sweat it Chris. Perfect response in my book.

Lesson learned. Move forward. Bracket racers have a different mentality.

I, for one, understand. But, I also had a bunch of Stock and Super Stock buddies that would have never let me make a pass with a different carb.

Good luck!

Jeff

Cool Re: What Do You Think About This?

Chris--You on your own manned up and did what was right here. Thank you for exhibiting the right attitude here. Let's all, in the Stock Eliminator family, remember this,lest we also be tempted. Test and Tune is where we can experiment without causing any grief, let's all remember to tinker there. As for the Div.7 racer that found Jesus, I'm glad for him,but we all have a long way to go . Thanks for your response.

Default Re: What Do You Think About This?

Chris,
Thank's for the response.
I for one know you and do not think for a minute you meant to harm any other racer by trying to figure out a new racecar that was not working they way it should have after all the hard work that it takes to build one. I would not have the interest in stock that I have if not for your enthusiasm about it. Hopefully this is a good lesson for a of our fellow racer's.
The wrong time and place for a test session? Yes. But how many of us haven't or wouldn't test something after a 300 mile drive and a disapointing first pass in new car?.
Putting the car in the trailer and going home without competing was the right thing to do at that point.
The interesting thing is that another racer was caught racing with a big carb this year and not a word was said about it here.

Toby,
Chris has given you the shirt off his back and this is how you repay him? I smell the stink of Sean Kennedy on you.

Phil,I usually agree with your posts,but don't try to crucify Toby on this one.Your west coast friend was 100% wrong and there was no justification for using that carb in qualifying.The
article said one of his crew persons is a tech inspector.Duhhhhhh.
