Looks heavy and makes upper control arm look like a twig...cant see real good but do the late model guys run a brake floater on the lr like mod guys? We used to do it on the rr but everythings the opposite of the way it was 15 years ago..also how many shocks are you allowed to run per wheel...

They're 2 on the lr, one being a dummy shock. The black canister you see is penskes version of a chain limiter.

I'm surprised you were able to get close enough to get this picture. Were you ran out of the pit area with a death warrant?

Rumley Rules don't allow a brake floater.

Yes, that was from the last Lucas race. I'm surprised it took almost 2 weeks to make its way online. The first thing I thought of when they were showing that is Bloomquist will get mad. That will probably the last time one of their camera people gets a shot of anything on the car minus the 4 tires.

Dummy shock is kind of an old term from the early LR behind days where one was often for spring mounting and the other one had valving. These days, both shocks are doing something for the car.

I remember about 06-07 UMP started allowing mods to run a coil over but still had to have the "live shock" on a separate mount but knew a few guys who would just sand a bilstien down paint it and say it was a dummy shock in the coil over..so I absolutely believe ya when you say both are doing something...

It was taken off of the ppv from Pittsburgh. Someone must have stopped the video and either took a screen shot or pic of it from the chair.

He had major issues there, and they’d be focused on getting the car fixed and not on a camera man getting a close up.

I thought the body bracing in the first pic was part of it. Looked like it was attached to the caliper. Threw me until I saw the smaller version of the picture.
