08/09/08: This week's report is sort of an extension of last week's report. After the race was over last week and I was already DQ'ed for being 10 lbs light, we were informed of a few other things on the car that weren't quite in line with the most recent set of rules.

I'll admit that I knew they had changed the rules about the size of the carburetor but I really didn't want to spend the money to change my carb until I knew if the car would be competitive. I asked around a little bit and was told that a lot of the other racers who run this class weren't happy about having to spend a bunch on money to change their carb either so the track wasn't really enforcing the new rule. Besides, I haven't seen the tech man lift a hood all year so I decided to leave my carb alone. Well, wouldn't you know it, the first night I decide to race the officials get ambitious and start checking, of all things, carburetors!
