a big ROAR event? I believe it's weight with body & tires, no fuel. The only big ROAR events I've been to, half the guys are running illegal pipes, turbo plugs, you name it. Surprised me; I thought they'd be fairly strict. I'm sure you they'll do a good job at nationals, they need to do it in the www.midwestseries.com
BTW, Dennis; in your gearing example why are you adding the axle ratio to the pinion/spur ratio?
