By many rules packages, this practice is not legal. If mounted properly, there would be no risk.

What about un-sprung weight being a bad thing?
-
I have been building Steel W-5 axle tubes and Steel 4 link cages for more info call 563 659 1153 thanks Dave

12doublej - I was wondering the same thing!
-
Im sure someone will start running dual "brake calipers" on the lr.

When it's up on the bars and off the spring isn't the left corner of the car all unsprung weight?
-
Yes, I guess it is RCJ....

mine never gets off the spring, but for your question, with angle in the bars , i think there would be some type of a mechanical spring effect, now if the bars went strait up and down, then it might act as a solid unit.

I was told by a reliable source that it was Bloomers go-to adjustment for the feature esp, the last half of last year. of course, its illegal now in Lucas.

What size weight would be reasonable
-
I see Keyser makes an actual clamp for mounting lead to an axle tube. Hopefully they didn't make too many! But at the same time, I bet a lot of the stuff that is now illegal in Lucas and WoO is still being used at the local level...they don't tech the cars and aren't looking for things like that (unless someone ratted you out).

Can someone explain the theory behind it
-
mark bush tech article in dirt late model magazine talks about it if you can get a hold of a copy

It is illegal if it is bolted on. It is not if it is slide onto axle tube. There are companies now making l/r axle tubes out of tungsten for the very affordable price of $6k. It frees the car up on entry & gives a ton of drive off

How does it accomplish that jr dirt?

Because that is what more lr weight does.

whats difference in doing that vs putting a piece of lead directly above it on chassis. thats the theory im looking for

You don't have to pick it up on the bars, lower so less will transfer through cornering.
