ZIPPYHIPPY Posted June 8, 2011 Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 There seems to be a lot of Technical people on this thread Don't mean to steal this thread but I have a question. Does anyone know if there is a particular drive SHAFT size mandated in the TSRS rules ? I am looking for specifics like the WIDTH and LENGTH and if they have an INPUT type rule ? Or should this be opened up under another Topic ? I am new here can someone HELP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rolliepollie Posted June 8, 2011 Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 Rick i'm not sure about TSRS, but most of the local tracks would prefer a large shaft be used, and I'm almost positive they will insist ypou use the ramithard type input. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DunnRacing99 Posted June 8, 2011 Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 Congrats John Hernandez on your first podium finish! Awesome to see one of the good guys get a well deserved good finish. Great run John, Jeremy and the rest of the team. That goldsmobile #9 will get a win before too long! That gold machine has come a long way since it hit the #12 under caution at THR a few years back. Keep up the hard work guys! Awesome job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Insist...you left a loop hole for your self gerald "almost" I have to bow down to the wise one. grass hopper still has a lot to learn. I will be trade marking the ramithard brand name so next time expect to pay a royalty fee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Negative sir. It does not exist! There is no spec for booster height according to the fine folks at Holley Racing. They are pressed in and flared to fit. The height of the boosters can vary with heat so Holley does not spec the booster height. What they do have a spec for are the holes the booster are pressed into. But there is no booster height Specification. So why is booster height even subject to technical inspection? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Racing Posted June 8, 2011 Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 The issue due to al the DQ,s is for the epoxy is to help retain the booster for safety reasons mandated by NASCAR according to DAN at VDL.They are for saftey concerns trying to keep the booster from falling out and hanging the carb wide open.

May I suggest that if you have an issue with technical inspection issues that you take the matter up with the track? Thanks. Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CC57 Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 ... May I suggest that if you have an issue with technical inspection issues that you take the matter up with the track? Thanks. Nick And I'm sure he will. And if he doesn't, I will. Heck, if it wasn't for this forum, and specifically this thread, I wouldn't have even been aware of this practice of epoxying the boosters, why anyone would do it (epoxy the booster), what the implications are, etc. But now that I know (and it was pointed out to me today that my carb is fine), I can now discuss intelligently – or somewhat anyway – this subject with Jack this Saturday and move on. The great thing about this forum, and/or others like it is the dissemination of information it can provide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pacecar Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 and something else you need to learn..... In 1998 at the big (130 competitors) Nascar Late Model Stock race in Martinsville, I was standing in line with Brandon Bendele's carburetor to be teched (all carbs had to pass pre-practice tech). All these other guys in line started staring at me. Being from Texas, I finally asked them why they were all staring at me. They told me that everyone knows it's bad luck to carry your carburetor upside down. Guess that was true. We didn't make the 32 car starting field for the $20,000 to win 200 lap race.

Karl E. Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 All good tech men across the country have the same set of gauges to tech the booster height. And good carb. builders have the same gauges to to get the most out of the carbs. The reason for the booster height gauge is to make sure that they are not to high that allows more air flow in the top of the carb. faster.

thomasghamilton Posted June 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 Just wondering why? After seeing the posting of the results why the second place finishing car #96 is below the #69 when they have the same VDL carb? 4. 69 Michael Pollaro Floresville, TX 35 laps QT 16.875 5. 96 Robert Barker Boerne, TX 35 laps QT 15.841 TI – Carburetor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
