      Jabber, How do you say that? It was headed astray before Davenport even got in the 6.

Either way that shouldnt be on the track in the name of safety...the way the sweet chassis run at Eldora Weiss would of been a favorite I think could be a $51,000 woopsie...
        I doubt he thought it would be an issue, or he would have been prepared. Did he realize it, who knows? This was the car Weiss got from Landers. Apparently, newer cars were built to spec.

          I’m not saying it wasn’t, but they’ve put their foot on the gas sending it there.

            They are just seeing how far they can take the lack of rules enforcement. They have a big expectation to fill.

              For sure, it’s not their fault but it’s a monkey see monkey do sport. Until the reset button gets hit on the rules, it’s never going to end.

                The tech at Hales Corners required a small hole drilled into the main cage upright to measure the tubing thickness...

                  That hole in the cage was/is still common out here too but I've never seen it checked.

                    I am a stickler, nobody is drilling a hole on any tube on the car. Not to mention unless you had a hole on every bar your checking it makes no sense. They make non distructive testing methods, we have to spend $2,000 on seats and $1,500 on fuel cells, oh and $700 on fire bottles I think it’s well within reason for the track to fork up the money to pay for or hire out thickness testing if they so desire.
