It sounds like they're being extra cautious, but I guess I look at it like this: If it's possible for the human body to be conditioned to the effects of extreme acceleration, whether positive or negative acceleration, it's going to be him. I hope he's OK. Tough week for the racing world....

Prayers inbound. That's terrible.

Wow, now I have two of you proving how much slower they are than John Force.

When you understand that I'm making comments about him being OLD, come on back. lemme help ya "How that man holds those RT's at that age is way over my head."

Deep staging, my left foot. I know a few people in their 70's and most of 'em can't go 0.002 seconds without falling asleep. Hell, 99.99% of the population can't hit a reaction time close to anything required for that level of competition. The closest I ever got to a reaction time like that was...

How that man holds those RT's at that age is way over my head.

I wish I could take that to the local 7/11.

There's another possibility to keep in mind here.... It could be that Speedmaster is only buying the offending parts from the same people that the 'original' seller/designer/manufacturer is buying them from.... Those cnc tool paths are awfully similar

Maybe I misunderstood the situation, but let's not kid ourselves.... Summit was willing to make money on sellout counterfeit ****, until their name got tied to sellout counterfeit ****. **** China and **** Summit for dealing with them. The only thing that changed here is that someone got...

Not as much as air shocks. It's easier to go fast when you're always going down hill.

And gun-cleaning patches

Um, have you priced old concert shirts lately? They're worth HUGE dollars, worn or not. Vintage is in, and I'm going to wager some of that stuff is quite valuable. My former mother in law made a sweet quilt for my brother in law out of his old worn out concert T's. The cool parts (the graphics)...

They're so damned good at being shitty. If they put that brainpower to something else, we would've cured cancer by now.

Buy it and make a bunch of money.

I was told that leaf spring cars can't go fast. That must be the root cause of his clearly evident suspension issue.

They got snow on the track in Vegas? That's a hell of a snowblade on that white car! And he's never going to get things cleared with the front end all in the air like that.

Tube kit from Summit and the only way to do it is to get in and do it. There are laser cut sbm exhaust flanges on eBay. Not sure what heads you're running.

Not sure why someone disagreed but this explanation makes sense. Thanks!

Wait, what the hell is a buyback?

I just thank God neither car was a rust-free four-door Dart. Those things are impossible to find!

Or get blown away in a tornado or get washed away in a flood or.... Nothing lasts forever

That's what happens when you race rare ****. Edited: as long as it wasn't some one of one, I'm ok with this

Had a similar clutch on a customer's drag bike. Damn thing rattled to beat hell.

The converter housing, hooked to the motor, and the impeller, hooked to the trans, spin at different speeds and use fluid flow between the two to transfer energy/motion from the housing (propeller) to the impeller. Picture a fan blowing on another fan and making the second fan move; this is...

The recent EPA Supreme Court ruling may poke holes in most of this thread. Study it. Then make friends with a lawyer type and start asking about class action administration suits.

I'll take it..... Over electric.

Bleach for a burnout is a terrible idea. Bleach is highly corrosive to steel.

I definitely remember that!! Saw several at Pick N Pull and U Wrench It that had motors like that. Later in life I realized they were probably dead due to plugged oil pickup screens.

I'm glad he's ok. That said, you racers will do anything to remove some weight. I think it looks kinda cool, and I would just leave it. I'm not really understanding what is keeping you from racing?

Free revving a 360 versus a 340 or 318 will illustrate a lot. I'm putting an aluminum flywheel behind my 360 and am debating using an aluminum pressure plate as well. I've always enjoyed high torque low flywheel motors, so I'm hoping this combo will bear that out
