Apparently I have offended you to trigger such a hostile respone. But I really don't care. Obviously, you are a very angry guy. I don't recall your name or meeting you at a National or even at a Divisiona. But I do have a way of becoming a target. So go ahead and take a shot. I have been attacked before and am still here.

What part of it, did I miss? Thanks for asking. It was the part that answered my question. Thanks for pointing it out.

In 2011 in November at the divisional in Vegas, the runs came later in the day. Somehwere around 4:99 as I recall. So we got permission to be torn down earlier, and finished putting it all back together and getting it all sealed up, just as they were call Stock to the lanes.

Then we went out got the record.

I guess it depends on the schedule, and the Divisional tech management.

That's good info there.
Thanks for posting.

Bill, I gave up on National Opens a couple of years ago after I had to dial for what should have been a heads up, do they weigh and check fuel now?

I can't understand why the rules should be relaxed for a race where you are allowed to set a record. All rules should be enforced, including the AHFS.

Phil or Kelly, I'm not sure who was driving the car that day.
