I WILL RESPOND, PAGE AND I TECHED ALL THE MODLITES EXCEPT FOR THE 19(DID NOT SHOW UP), PAGE BORED AND STROKED THE MOTORS, THE WERE CORRECT AS I KNOW IT, HE CHECK THE HEAD GASKET THICKNESS, IM NOT SURE OF THAT RESULT, I BELIEVE IT TO BE CORRECT, WERE DID THE STAINLESS VERS TITIANUM COME INTO PLAY, TITIANUM IS ALOT BETTER, TO ANSWER QUESTION ON STRANTON'S AIR FILTER IT WAS REMOVED AND CLEANED, BECAUSE I FORGOT TO BUT A NEW AIR CLEANER FOR WALT TO REPLACE THE DIRTY ONE. AS POSTED THOSE MOTORS ARE FOR SALE FROM CAR OWNERS FOR ALOT LESS THAN THE BS SPREAD AROUND THE RACE TRACK. WE NEED TO RACE AND PLAY FAIR OR WE WILL LOOSE THIS CLASS AND HAVE TO RUN AGAINST THE BIG MONEY MOTORS !!!!!!!

But the rule in the pro class is stock right down to the air cleaner and he has run and won races in the pro class with the K-N air filter so it was illegal I don't think its a big advantage it definitely let's the colder air in but a rule is a rule . And the other question was why tech after points and only tech one points race all year I know its not up to you but you must know the reason

I swore that after the incident with Fire Kitty that I wouldn't post my concerns, but low and behold the word gets around that I should maybe take a peek at dial a chat. So here I am again and not to point fingers at anyone but just to say that I was never asked to go to the tech area or have I ever in the 2 years that I have raced here. Yes, I have had questions about some of the calls made and not always have I left there happy with what I had found after the race. But you know what we fail to realize is that we all should be thankful that with the position that the world is in that we have such a priviledge to be able to still be able to race and to have a facility to race. I know it's been tough racing for us this year and I'm thankful for every race that I was able to make and even happier for those I made it through without sitting at McDonalds and wondering how I was going to rob peter to pay paul. Also I'm very thankful for the spectators on the otherside who dedicate their friday Nights to cheer and those who have supported my wins and my almost wins. But if you want the #19 car to tech you have to let me know but just to make a point I was one of the last cars to leave the track Sunday Night and nothing was ever mentioned to me about teching my car so I don't know where this is all coming from.

TO REPLY AIR FILTERS, IF YOU WOULD READ THE RULE. NUMBER 11,SEC4. IT STATES ENGINE MUST RETAIN ITS STOCK FUEL SYSTEM. MAY RUN AFTERMARKET AIR FILTER. ENDS THAT QUESTION!!!!!!! NEXT DOES A K&N AIR FILTER HAVE AIR CONDITIONER IN IT, IS THAT HOW IT COOLS THE AIR OR DOES IT ALOW AIR TO FLOW FREELY?? TO ANSWER THE 19'S QUESTION, AT DRIVERS MEETING IS WHEN YOU WERE TOLD, TOP 3 CAR'S TO TECH!

TO ANSWER THE 19'S QUESTION, AT DRIVERS MEETING IS WHEN YOU WERE TOLD, TOP 3 CAR'S TO TECH! 1)well we were always told stock air filter so that is a fact 2)nobody said aircond in K_N sounds like sour grapes on your part .Use your head Ed pulling in colder air to the fuel system is better than the pulling in the hot air off engine with the stock air filters THAT IS BASICALLY what was STATED !!!!!! 3)DRIVERS MEETING they better start using microphone if they like it or not their was over 60 people there i asked my driver what they said and they said all they were talking about was the 600 micros and or have separate drivers meetings for micro and mods 4)still never answered the question why start teching after points season over isnt that POINTLESS ?

HOLD ON THERE ED you better read that rule again that is for "TUSA" not the stock 1000 class it says the 1000 can compete in this class thus allowing that rule to apply to the 1000 engine not in the PRO stock 1000 class double check that rule bet you cant find one person that thinks you can run more than stock air filter OR their would be more than Walt's car running them I'm sure ! the rules are veg for sure and I was told by you ED that the air filter has to be stock in every class except TUSA that also came from Walt !!!

I think it's quite evident here that there was no need to tech my motor because if someone had thought for one minute that there was the slightest possiblity of my motor being illegal and having the spot light on me they would have found me with no problem. I would rather had Ed walk over to me and just throw a reminder or hit me in the back of the head then to write in here implying that I purposely didn't go to tech. But then again Ed hasn't said 5 words to me all year so why expect anything different. There has been a cold and bitter feeling in the pits and I'm not the only one that has noticed, but the speaker of many who aren't as upfront as I am who like me feel the same. I hope we all can close this race season up with a good time and a safe one.

I agree that many post that do finger pointing and don't post their name is cowardly because I believe everyone has the right to face their accuser. However , I do believe that many people do have some real concerns that definately have come to light on many of these postings. I am sorry that when someone reads these post that all they see is people not putting a name there. I see many people with great concerns. I read post by people that appear to put safety first. I see teams and drivers wanting rules. I see people with great suggestions and ideas. Don't worry about if the name is there or not, look much deeper at the content and if it is worthy. SOME POST ARE. SOME POST ARE NOT. YOU WILL KNOW WHICH ONES ARE WORHY OF YOUR TIME AND ENERGY.

I agree with itsmydime and love racing, people just need a place to vent and it has to be better to get it out on here rather than in the pits.
