Slant 6 Turbo 68Dart Project
Looking at their raceway forums it looks like if it's a stock new car it is just looked at quickly but their more inclined to look over an oldschool or muscle car. The drag I want to enter has a several classes, and one of them is highschool. I'm assuming mine would be street, as that seems to be above highschool...? I'll find a metal strap for the battery no problem, but it makes one more part to add. I don't know that I'd run higher than a 14 as i have no idea what I'm doing, but if I don't think it's possible it looks like i wouldn't need a helmet. I should probably bring one anyway just in case.
Tomorrow after work I'll do a huge scrape job on the underside of the motor and K-frame and make sure I get everything off. Basically I'm just worried about being shot down is all, so whatever quick adjustments i can make, I should make them.
-I have metal return line to the tank, braided steel line from the reg to carb, and to the entry of the return line, and also braided from the feed line (also steel) to the entry of the regulator. No rubber fuel line anywhere at all.
-Battery is in the trunk, bolted down with 3 3/8" bolts to the body, and in a plastic box.
-Seat belts are modern but bolted to the body
-I'll take the front hubcaps off.
-Hood is pinned down, and has safety cables on the pins.
- I'll take the subwoofer and any loose stuff out of the car on track day.
-Aftermarket gauges are screwed into the body A pillar and are very secure.
-Very small oil leak that i may be able to contain long enough to get through tech.
I can't really think of anything else that would apply to me, but as Rusty was saying i may have an issue as the motor is not stock? But maybe it's not a problem if I don't think I'm going to run a 14 or quicker?
-There's 2 throttle return springs, one inside the other. Does that count? Or does one have to go to a different point of return?
-I'll reinstall my catch can, just have to find somewhere to mount it.
-There's full exhaust on the car with muffler. It may even be the quietest car there...
I've never done this before, and I think it shows.
