The promoter bears the most blame because of it's inability to provide a safe environment, as was done in last year's race

It is hard for me to accept the argument that the promoter is not at fault when the race had fencing last year.  Because the promoter failed to provide adequate safety to the spectators of the race they absolutely shoulder the majority of the responsibility.

Ok this is eating me up.  The truck landed less than 10 feet from the track.  There should be no lawyers involeved. No investigations being done, etc....  People need to pull their heads out of their rears on common sense stuff.  As the saying goes: If common sense is so common everyone would have it.
Does this fall under Darwin's  idea of "survival of the fittest"?  Meaning if your not smart enough to stay away from extremely dangerous objects then oh well.
If i was the lawyer defending the MDR promoter, I would call for a blood toxicity reading on all deceased because I would put a lot of money on it that they were all drinking that night.
This will forever change offroad racing.

Do you have a diverter yet?  Most people with Sangers use the diverters to get rid of the porpoising.  It works with mine and thats what I have read in the past.

I am thinking about heading out to the Topock Needles area this weekend so who else will be there?

That gives the sequence and the torque amount.  Heads to block-140 but do it in 3 stages like 1.80 2.110 3.140

Exhaust Manifolds I torque to 35ft/lbs and I start with the middle bolts and work my way out.

This has never failed me yet!  Good luck.

1.1000 grit
2.1500 grit
3.2000 grit
4.fine cutting liquid (I prefer Meguiers)
5.scratch and swirl remover
6.polish and cleaner
7.final wax

I prefer meguiers for all of my wax/polish needs.

Dont worry about cutting through gel because it will take a while to do that.

PM me if you have any questions.  I have done this a ton on my boat.

Point taken.
