Comp Code of Arms

[Erich Bollman]

Wow great post...finally someone who is making sense!

[Jeremy Tanksley]

Look, the personal index idea was a debate. It was one of the best debates on this forum in a long time. No one is forcing you to be for the idea. That's why it is called a debate. When I say debate, I define it as being a discussion that covers all defficiencies of a proposal. The bottom line is, no, the idea won't work, since almost no one is for it, and since it has its flaws that run the risk of being absolutely unacceptable. Even if the idea had only good values with no bad values, the answer is still no for the reason that not everyone was for the idea.

No one should have to face criticism of any kind. Alan, I can't quite say that we don't need to work on our car, but this idea wasn't about us, it was about everyone. I didn't go through all of that debating just for our operation. I'm not a selfish or self-centered person. When I see something happen that may very well put several racers out of racing comp, I try to determine what will keep this from happening.

Once again, everyone has and is entitled to their own opinion, and I respect that since an opinion is what makes a debate worth having.

Have a nice day!

Just to be redundant, I'll agree with what everyone said.

I'm guilty of throwing a few new ideas out there for discussion, but good points.

12 - Get back to working on your sh*t - quit reading this garbage.....

Not looking for handouts by any means, but I would like to throw down some facts.

The only thing that one can do to work on his/her car that doesn't cost loads of money is waxing the paint and polishing the wheels. The facts are still the same, to pick up .05, you're looking at spending THOUSANDS. Even after spending thousands, there is no true guarantee that you will pick up.

Just my thoughts!

[Alan Freese]

How much money does it cost to;

1- change jets
2-change startline rpm
3-change tire psi
4-adj clutch weight
5-adj wing
6-change trans ratio
7-change rearend ratio
8-adj struts
9-adj shocks
10-change converter stall
11-shift point rpm

I know that not all of these apply to every car in comp but if you are not looking at some of this stuff each run, you are a better tuner/owner/driver than I am. My hats off to you!

By the way, if you don't already know where you're at on these things, you more than likely shouldn't even be at the track.



WOW!

Do you guys fight and ridicule each other like you do everyone else? Alan makes more sense than anyone else on this board. Plus, he had the nads to say what he thought.

[DanLynch]

Do any of you remember the old Compuserve Drag Racing message board?

Someone is starting to remind me of good old Dustin Whipple...
