Re: another aa/sa chevelle
Whatever it was, i think had to do with the upper part of the suspension. It was bad enough where they booted him. They asked him who else had the same thing.

Re: another aa/sa chevelle
The problem wasn't anything more than a ride height issue. I think it was resolved at Brainerd.

Re: another aa/sa chevelle
Sean, if it was a ride height issue, he wouldn't have been kicked out of earlville. I talked to him a lot, and it is one part of the suspension, its got to be replaced or somehow make the tech dept happy

Re: another aa/sa chevelle
Joe, when did this happen? And what generation of the Weibe suspension is he using? The older stuff has been out there a while, and NHRA told me it was legal. I have not seen the new pieces he has for the upper suspension, and I don't know anyone who has been through tech with it.

Re: another aa/sa chevelle
The problem started at bir then finished up at earlville where nhra made the decision. I think it may have something to do with that wishbone piece on top. Kevin says it has to be changed to make them happy. If you have that suspension better check what has to be done, i t sounds like they are going to check in div 5, i talked to a tech guy.

Re: another aa/sa chevelle
I don't have it, yet. A Chevelle will most likely be my next race car, and Weibe suspension is what I plan on using. I will certainly keep an eye on the situation to see how it develops. Kevin Borgstrom's car has been one of my favorites for some time. I have a serious soft spot for a 69 Chevelle 427/425, a friend, Harry Vineyard, had one years ago that he ran in B/SA, and Tucker Parrish drove it some in A/S. That's a car even my wife wishes I'd bought!
