Good video man💯 In my experience most of these rules only apply to older cars I been running mid to low 10s full interiour only need a fire jacket and snell helmet tech guys don't even look at my car because it looks stock. Everything changes when I bring out my 1983 toyota corolla that runs high 12s they pop the hood look at the engine interiour seat belts buckets seat my truck totally differnet experience 😂
I took my 72 Nova out yesterday for the first time this year just to test and tune. I run 10.9s. I rolled into the tech line and someone informed me to just turn in my tech card at the front gate and they have not been teching cars all season. Wtf? Lol
Some places are definitely more strict than others that’s for sure. There’s a rural Nevada track that didn’t tech my car this year because they remembered me being there last year lol. Not a big deal to me because I feel confident that my car will pass tech at any track but I’d hate to see someone get hurt because they cut corners.
Thank you! I just have a mechanical advanced distributor. I have it set at 20 degrees of timing at an idle and it sweeps to full advance at 32 degrees above 3,000 RPM
The track has mentioned it one time but has never made me replace it. All I did was make a small L shaped bracket, self tapper it to the firewall and it rests right above the dipstick so it can’t be pulled out. All I have to do is loosen the self tapper to move the L bracket and then the dipstick can be pulled out!
You need to look at the way you getting fuel to the carb. One line to a reg. Then splitting to the carb. Is not the best way. You need to run a no.8 to carb and after carb run a no.10 line back to the tank. Do a back feed to the carb at 7 psi. This will keep your fuel cooler and not have starvation in the carb.
Great information and thank you for sharing your experience.
That car is sick.... good job!
This video was sooooo helpful! Thanks 🙏🏾
Glad it could help!

Great videos I’m a new subscriber to your channel. I also have a Nova with a supercharger. How did you set the timing curve with your blower? 👍

Great video
When driving how would you suggest the best way to hold the wheel when driving
Whatever is the most comfortable for you and the your cockpit set up!
Did they say anything about your "locking" dipstick for the trans? I have the same and was curious if I need to replace it.

Hi there. Love your car, what size and make are your front wheels and what size tire is on the front if you don’t mind me asking.
Thank you! Don’t mind at all. The wheel is a 15x4 Jegs SSR. The tires are 26x4.5-15’s!
@@PLANBRACINGhey Bud. Got my wheels and tires. Have you lowered the front of the car, mine looks a lot higher than your beast?
Yes I have! I have lowering springs on the car.
So the reg. Is on the line back to the tank, this is called back feeding the carb.

I have it set up like that now! I switched to E85 this last off season and totally rebuilt the fuel system.
Good to hear you got info on the Berry Grant fuel routing system.
I am a Steely Eye Missile Man. Retired US Navy and Lockheed Martin Missile and Space. The safe on the track.
-12 from tank to pump, -10 pump to regulator, split off and 2 -8 to carb with a -8 return off the reg
Why I bought a dragy
How much does a car weigh???
Right at 2,900 with me in it
I been racing from the 60's.
How to get thru a tech line in the southeast; turn your tech card in and go racing. No one looks at sh*t around here.
😂😂🙌🏻 I guess that can be good or bad
