Labor Day In Sonoma....

. All the impounds I've been witness too just involve the drivers talking to each other, we didn't even have weights taken.

That's not good. I'd want some ride height measurements, some airdam measurements and some weighing. And a mandatory open hood. Simple easy and cheap.

That's what I got when I ran with the ground pounders. ITE's only "rule" was run DOT rubber, no minimum weight, height, or limit to mods. Still there were other classes that did have some rules, and I don't remember any of them even being weighed either....

I'd make a request of the drivers rep, if you have one, and have him/her talk to the Tech chair and request that stuff. It's all easy to do, and requires not a ton of work. Dick Patullo who posts here as Dickita15 works with tech all the time, and can advise better than I no doubt.

(It's surprising to see how cars sometimes disappear for mysterious reasons when they find out that scrutineering might actually look at their car)

With Doug's situation, I guess we'll all read it in FasTrack when it comes out. It is my understanding that Doug didn't want to "seal" up the car, and demanded that he also be present for the tear down.

All in all, an unfortunate set of circumstances, and I hope that Doug agree's that he might have made a "snap decision" that he might now regret.

Apparently this was a brand new engine that Doug had built, and was going through some teething problems with it that weekend.
