Re: Fake battery, dq or not
maybe the people with fake battery's up front just need to work on the suspension and make the car leave with a real battery in it. lmao

Re: Fake battery, dq or not
This might be a dumb question..What is the rule for cut off switches in Stock? placed in rear of car? I have seen cut off switches under the hood which is totally useless in an accident.

Re: Fake battery, dq or not
Taking 35-40 lbs. off the nose and moving it to the rear is obviously worth something. Last year at Epping they found 2 fake battery's but let them fix it. Since then they have dq'd anyone caught.

Re: Fake battery, dq or not
How is a fake battery not outright cheating?

Re: Fake battery, dq or not
Eric giving people vacations for violations is counterproductive to padding the bottom line at NHRA. I believe they will start just letting the "violator" pay a $fine get it corrected, run the race and then they can see his contribution for the next race he enters.
