    Working right front brakes have been required on mods for at least 20 years .

      Well said. And dumb on his part. You’re so good, don’t beat yourself.
      Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

          Here ya go;
          For the first time in my career I won and got DQed. Was told by the tech guy if I would have waited til a couple laps left to take off rather than killing everyone it prob would have been ok. No rf brake. Had a shutoff go bad a few weeks ago so I plugged the line. Oh well.

            My Browser is not supported by Twitter. IS it possible for someone to summarize Nicks Twitter message ? Would appreciate very much.

                  Yep, that's pretty much what I got from it.

                    That should have read that the techs at Fairbury figured out what was going on with the brake deal and tipped off the guys at PRP about Hoffmans wheel speed sensor for traction control. Poor Nick finally got nabbed.

                        There is a guy on FB saying that same thing. And he could very well be informed.

                        I should say WAS. Crazy John took it down. It must have gotten good.

                          What does Lucas have to do with the mods?

                            I would like to know which racing body allows brake shutoff valves for the right front on a modified. Is it legal in UMP ?

                              A. All cars must be equipped with a working braking system on all four wheels and all four wheels must be able to stop/brake at all times.

                                Ok so having a shut off plumbed in is legal ? What do they think it's there for, he admitted it went bad so he plugged the line. If they can't see it then I guess it's legal ?
