      For some reason, they did something in tech that had never been done before. Even after a death. And there is that guy who had a Bloomer car of similar vintage who is leasing it out to jig. If Bronson had not owned a Bloomer car, Weiss is legal. I guarantee it.

        Yeah, I seen the social media post.
        So then I assume you know FOR SURE that Bronson's bloomer car was put on a jig? You actually witnessed it? Seen it with yer own eyes?

        Well, I read it on the internet, so it HAS to be true. Man, I love this neighborhood.

          I said nothing about Mark jigging a car. That has nothing to do with Weiss being caught.

            So Ricky says this is the same car deemed legal earlier in the year so it's true? We really do not know that it was and even if so, it's no excuse to let it slide once it's seen.

            Drivers are well aware of roll cage tubing sizes and yes even 1/8" is noticeable.

            I find it amazing the things fans are willing to dismiss as 'no big deal' when it comes to a driver they like. Would you feel the same if Ricky got seriously injured or killed and this was found to be a factor? I think everyone then would be saying "he shouldn't have been allowed to race". What's next? Should we also allow 1 door bar?

              I do know when we went thru the tech line he had a big wrench, i believe it was like a 1 1/2 and he was checking all the bars thru the Drivers door area and the halo area.

              Just say no...

                No cage, none whatsoever.

                If he wasn’t legal, he wasn’t. Just wish they’d get on the bodies they have let get outta control. I’m sure others had JD’s monstrosity, but that’s the pic I seen, freakin nuts. More tracks need to get on the Eldora bandwagon. I think what MR was alluding too was a little birdie told Eldora about the plate/bar.
                Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

                  I agree that others need to get on board, but as we see on this site, some people want rules enforced until it becomes an unfortunate deal like this, then the officials are picking on certain drivers (or whatever the excuse might be) and the tracks/ sanctioning body takes a beating for it. If we want the rules to be strictly enforced we all have to understand that it may bite our favorite drivers every once in a while.

                  Mark may very well have brought this to the officials attention, but the problem wasn't Mark being a rat. The problem is a racecar they deemed not up to the rules. I'm sure Mark has had people snitch him out over the years also.

                    I just can't wait for the world in October. It seems like the world and dream always brings some sort of drama. Anyone want to guess what happens then? Will the 4m meet and greet be a royal rumble and make the dirt on dirt page?

                        I'm guessing the wrench makes it easier to reach some places.

                          The jig really has nothing to do with this even if it's true, it could have been seen with the naked eye and even easier when putting a new body on. Are Bronson/ Richards responsible for Weiss getting caught? They very well could be, but only because tech is so lame these days. Man, 15 years ago this wouldn't have made it thru opening night at a weekly show.

                            Bull$hit , the 1.375 roll cage would absolutely make it through local show tech all they check is seat belt dates

                              I already stated it had nothing to do with jigging a car. I did not even say a car was jigged.

                              Caught at a local show? You have to be joking.

                                t would have been 15 years ago when they used to tech the cars thoroughly.
