I notice that most of the SS/AH cars have a lot of bump steer when they land from a wheelie. Bucky's car did not seem to do that, nor did the Camaro's or even the white Nova. The early Nova's had a reputation of having terrible front end geometry. It looked better than most of the Mopars. Is this because of the strut rod on the A-bodies, or is it something else?

A lot of times the tire wobble you see when the car lands is from a bad idler arm. I've seen it on my own car and others. On mine the bushing in the idler was shot from all the wheelies. Changed it, and the wobble was gone.

OK thanks OutlawSSAA. I was thinking it was the strut rod bushings being too soft. I'll check the idler arm on my Belvedere before I finish the car. I'll have to take the drag link off to get it through the oil pan anyway, so that will be a good time to check it.

This is where I've gotten them in years past. Don't know if they did one for 2015. If so, I missed it. Just went to the site and there was no mention of calendars. Maybe an email will get you what you want to know.


If the results don't match the theory, change the theory.

Yes they did do a Hemi Challenge calendar for 2015. Dean Murdoch at Speed Zone does them. Jr, Frito has you covered.

Nothing has been posted in a while, so I will start by asking a couple of questions. Any new cars being built or freshened up? Without an early season race at No Problem, will there be a "Shootout Race" at the Jegs race at Bowling Green? No real snow to speak of in Minnesota so winter has been shortened a month already. I hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving and has a good Christmas season. Take care everyone. Dyno

Just for you Dyno, Eric Bell will enter the fray with power from Erik Jones. Speaking of Jones there is a possibility that another one of his customers may return for a few races in 2016 as soon as he TCB. (hint). A new/old car is now ready and the owner from Northern Ohio plans to race SS/AH. The car has a long history and the chassis builder who updated it went to great lengths to preserve the award winning paint. After a well known car was wrecked the owner/driver wanted to get another car and race in SS/AH but it now looks like he will take the Drag Pak route.
