Look forward to meeting you 69chargerMD, I had about the same experience as you in tech there, they do check the cars but not to radical, closer though than most of the Ohio and Pa tracks do that Ive been to though. Hate to wish you wouldnt sell the car, but would like to see that 65 running there. I'll be running NSS

I'll be racing again this year, NSS. I camp in the pits, there are showers on site. I get around by bicycle, some areas they aren't allowed.

We go every year to spectate. It's one of those old tracks where the stands are close to the track. Always a great time.

Even though I live 13 miles from the track, the Duster stays at home. I take off work Thursday and Friday, rent a golf cart and my dad and I go and watch (remember it is Father's day weekend). It is by the far the most Chrysler cars you will ever see at Beech Bend for a race. We pitch a tent on the hill across from the pits, watch a while and drive around a while. We are always looking to make new mopar friends. This event always has me wanting to sell/trade the Duster and move to a 63/64 wagon or post car.

Phase II 451 Stage VI/590/1050 9.82/135
Phase III 383 906/Victor-Pump gas 11.30/119

I've been trying to talk Kayse into going to as spectators for Saturday.

Driving down in her car makes it a cheaper trip.
Probably one tank of gas each way.


Kayse can't keep up at all now. lol

We're planning to go again this year. We went in 2008 and had a blast!
I have a few questions...
1) If I enter B/Modified Elim (10.50 index, full tree) and am not competitive, would I be allowed to change classes and run in Hot Rod? For example, if I could only run 10.65, not really competitive in in 10.50 or 11.00 indexes, could I run in Hot Rod where your index is set by your qualifing passes?
2)How tight is the tech inspection? I have all of my safety equipment, but some things like my CSR trans shield sfi sticker has ran out as has the sfi sticker on my balancer.
3)At 10.50 ET, will I have to have a diaper?

If anyone can answer these question, please chime in. Or if anyone knows who can answer then, let me know.

Thanks,
Brian

I bring my LQ trailer and park in the campgrounds to watch the burnouts (that includes us) all night long! Drop by for a cold one if you are out and about. Here is Slax69gts in front of my 69 D200 in the campground.

The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.

Darn it Jim set up another bed with access to A/C and I will come down. It has been on my bucket list for years. lol

72CudaRacer, NHRA reunion website lists Bruce Bachelder 317-216-4869 or Pat Cvengros 626-914-4761 for any tech questions. I haven't seen tech crawl under cars to check the stickers on trans shields but where one is visible (on your balancer) they might get picky. They made me change a Teflon oil pressure line to a braided line a couple of years ago before I could run. The guy behind me in tech had the same Teflon line and they passed his. Tech is kinda hit and miss I guess. See ya there.
