adam78 Posted August 5, 2006 Report Share Posted August 5, 2006 I thought Randy did a nice job as an official. Like eveyone else said, I want to see Herbie back out there. I think it'd be a cool camera shot to have all of us bugs racing each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tps48 Posted August 5, 2006 Report Share Posted August 5, 2006 As Ricky Bobby would say, "With All Due Respect" I would rather have Randy Larsen teching our cars than someone like S.Carpenter. In the past TPS has relied on other drivers to fill in as officials. Nothing unusual or devious about that. ( Bucky Hutchison comes to mind) When Randy starts driving again I am sure Neil will find someone qualified to take his place. Who knows, maybe Kevin Hallman will get his 97car going and TPS will need to find his replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maz1438 Posted August 5, 2006 Report Share Posted August 5, 2006 just for the record i didnt say randy wasnt good i think he did a good job and did what he was told to do . Just curious to actually know how you were aware of Randy doing a good job? Were you there? If not, maybe you shouldn't be commenting on things or constantly bad mouthing everything about TPS unless your going to be there and see was is actually going on.

maz1438 Posted August 6, 2006 Report Share Posted August 6, 2006 Unfortunately oldtimer, all crt does is read these posts and then try to comment/stir things up within the TPS. As it seems, he is only getting second hand info on what is going on( due to not actually particpating or being at the races) and then only proceeds to interept it in his own behalf. But the real question to CRT is if he claims to know so much about Fords and all available performance parts, then how can TPS fairly consider changing the ARCA head and plates rules (beyond what they have already done) if the best ARCA equipped car (#7) is not running up to specs. And if TPS didn't measure, wouldn't they be partcipating in a potential excercise of sand-bagging? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HiTech Posted August 6, 2006 Report Share Posted August 6, 2006 yes your are correct 1438 sandbagging can happen .but i can tell you for one thing for sure jessie does not sandbag .to get anything .i would not build and maintain his car if he did that .we try real hard to dill with the deck we are handed and anyone is welcome to put a video cam in the car . we will have all we can have in sas ..when he raced in kyle against the 70 .that was all we got .don is one fast driver with a fast car. and we may have pulled it off if that spin had not of happend . and if we could of gotten by that 20 car .who is fast also`.

NickHolt Posted August 6, 2006 Report Share Posted August 6, 2006 Well, how could it be "all we got" if a smaller restrictor plate was still under the carb than the TPS rules allow? Seems to me that if it were my car, I'd give it all air/fuel I could get through the restrictor plate - especially in light of all the discussions about how the Fords need a bigger restrictor plate. I know that Neil keeps a close watch over the performance of each and every make and type of car that runs in TPS. For several years I even kept charts and graphs showing the relative performance of the TPS cars during practice, time trials and during competition. Obviously the car you work on is one of the fastest Fords in the series, but if that car is using a restrictor plate that is smaller than the one allowed, Neil would not be getting an accurate picture of its potential performance since a larger restrictor plate could well have provided more speed. The word "sandbagging" was probably not the most accurate word to use in this case, but I think you can see what he meant if the car was using a smaller restrictor plate than allowed.

maz1438 Posted August 6, 2006 Report Share Posted August 6, 2006 Nick, don't get me wrong, maybe the term "sandbagging" isnt accurate and i am not accusing anyone of this, just pointing out that with CRT whining about restrictions on all the fords, then why would someone purposely run a smaller restrictor plate? What would be the accurate word/term for this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
