"Casper" is waking up.

[McRat]

"Casper" is our 2005 GMC 2500HD 4x4 diesel pickup.  We ran Bonneville twice a couple years ago.

But, my printing press was smudging the $100 bills, so we had to stop racing for awhile.

If the Speed Gods are willing, we will do our best to run Speed Week again for 2012.

I do apologize for arguing on the board.  I will try not to do that again.

It's been so long, that I lost Dan Warner's phone number.  I need to arrange a time to certify our displacement prior to the first El Mirage event.  (or who ever is doing displacement certs now).

If someone could email Dan's phone # to mcrat@mcratracing.com it would be deeply appreciated.  Or whoever is doing the certs now.

My truck is in Norco, California, about a mile from the Cook's home.

I guess I need a HANS device now, is there any other major changes I need for a vehicle tech'd in 2009?

Good to see you back Pat! Have a safe, good, and fast season.

Thanks Dan!   

I will give you a ring after we get everything ready.  We have 2 engines that need sealed, but #3 is almost ready as well.

Pat--There have been some changes in the Lateral restraint (Helmet Area) rules. both `wings` of the restraint have to come to the front edge of your Helmet, and have no more than 2'' movement sideways on each side. There are a few threads on this on the forum, but I would certainly try to get an Inspector to run through the Truck before the May El Mirage meet, to make sure you are good to go....

[McRat]

Thanks Paul!

The NHRA is re-certing the cage next week, and checking if I need anything.  Our next event is in March, but it's a dragrace event.

THEN...  I'm going to have to draft a SCTA victim tech inspector to do the same.

I really like the diesel
