I want to be the first to let everyone know, that we (3649 D/SA) didnt make it through tech. Unfortunately a few grams in the piston assembly cost us our chance this year. Nothing we did intentionally, it's a brand new engine from the engine builder, something must have been missed. We hate it of course, but we were treated with respect by Wesley and crew, and if it's wrong, it's wrong. Just wanted to dispel any rumors before they get started.

Just verifying. It was the total weight of piston, rings, rod, bearings, bolts, wrist pin?

Total weight of everything except the bearings.

Does that mean #129, #130 and # 131 get put in?

Ladder shows Gary Summers as #1 qualifier. Doesn't look like he was DQ'd

I was looking at that also and it looks like no one was DQ'd.
