"I should use a number 3 piston in center shock because it it was slaming the rear end down an was not smooth and floating." I can't ask him what I should do now because I had a number 3 in the center shock already and won't see him to next week. Should I put a softer spring in.

bob.. #3 is the one to use... either a green or silver spring.. i use 70 or 80 wt oil... some use 50 or 60... also a .062 fiberglas bias cut 45 degree slotted t plate as well.. if your t plate is to stiff it wont be as smooth..

I have been running the center with a #3 piston with 80 WT oil. You said you were running 50 WT which isn't out of the ordinary. It is just whatever works best for you.

Another thing to check is the amount of preload you have on the center spring. You pretty much run as much as you can until the car gets loose then back it off a little. I run an Associated silver spring in the center and a lot of people use the Associated green spring. In my opinion what the preload does is it keeps the car from squatting too much in the center of the corner and when it unloads it will gives the car more of a launch or spring off the corner.

I will be back next week if the weather cooperates. Hopefully Hays "Midas" Jr. will be able to make it also.

Cup. One more thing to look at is the length of your center shock. I like to see 1/4" of droop to my pod. When you hold your car up the shock should be able to extend enough for the pod to hang down 1/4. Otherwise the rearend will get light when the car comes out of the corner. Oh yeah, I also run 80 wt Oil.

I like what you've done with Cory's car.

No I am going to be at the bottom, I have been busting my ____ trying to set it up like two or four...its hard as hell. Well guys I got it up, LOL I mean the race results. I made a decision I am only putting the main's up and the point standings. I need to work on my car socan get Hays butt. I am using some RCR motors now, just signed a long term contract. Will not break it or look for a upgrade like Javon Walker. If all else fails I guess I will have to get JR to be my crew chief.

Hey Bob.. i dont think you need to list all the qualifiers.. Just the mains with times... that would save you some work....

We do appreciate all your hard work. I think Burbs is right though. Maybe the final qualifying and the mains would be enough. Thanks again.

Hey Bob, how about this idea? Post the final results like normal and then when you click on the drivers name you can pull up all their lap times from qualifying, current points and standings along with pictures and a driver bio as well? If I think of anything else, I will pass it along. How does that sound? L.O.L. Just kidding, now get to work on that car.
