Also ice down the intake manifold, push the car up to the lanes, air up the front tires, drain a quart or so of oil, angle stage the car if you can get away with it.... just hang out in the stock/super stock pits and watch and listen. You will pick up lots of tricks before class eliminations.
Definitely what stock and SS guys do. I was referring to a heads up car which already does many of those things every round. We don't ice intakes as most of us run fuel that ices them for us
but we do make sure the fuel is COLD going in right when we get called. We run as little oil capacity, viscosity(we run zero weight all the time) and pressure as we can get away with. We also run light oil in the diff and again as little as we can get away with, not to mention ceramic bearings EVERYWHERE.
