Title: Re: WCSS - BUD Nationals UPDATES Post by jrtracing on 10/09/11 at 3:22pm I just want to say thanks to Larry Blake for letting me wheel that hot rod! Thanks to James Vernon-Rosedale Pawn for their support when I was in the 23 car it's not forgotten! Thanks to David Hays for his support and putting me back on the track last year and this year, and thanks for upping the SS purse for the Bud Nationals! I've been blessed with a lot of good help. Thanks are owed to a lot of people. |

Title: Re: WCSS - BUD Nationals UPDATES Post by hughes SS#5 on 10/09/11 at 8:56pm After watching this video of Billy,I'm wondering how come they gave the 66 his position back on the restart.Does anybody know? Darrell |
|
Title: Re: WCSS - BUD Nationals UPDATES Post by hogracer3d on 10/09/11 at 9:09pm What I heard was that he actually spun after the yellow was already out, for another incident |
|
Title: Re: WCSS - BUD Nationals UPDATES Post by hughes SS#5 on 10/09/11 at 9:26pm White flag was waving and the green lite was still on when Billy was entering 1.The yellow came on when he was entering 2.I guess something must have happened in turn 3 or 4 . Darrell |
|
Title: Re: WCSS - BUD Nationals UPDATES Post by mudslinger47 on 10/09/11 at 9:35pm It was what HRD3 said, the officials are human and some interpretations may differ. The spins happened real close to same time, 66 got lucky or they were lookin' at the other end expecting trouble, either way, it is what it is. Duane |

Title: Re: WCSS - BUD Nationals UPDATES Post by pitter on 10/10/11 at 11:03am The 04T car spun the 66 when his Lf hit the RR of the 66. The 04T got a LF flat from the contact. The 66 got spun. Mike Kelly |
|
Title: Re: WCSS - BUD Nationals UPDATES Post by imracin68j on 10/10/11 at 11:10am One more thing on the Super Street class that makes it what it is. At the Bud Brady Bell pulled Lee's old car out of the weeds and put Billy Griffin in it. He was competitive all night in that car. And of corse that was cool of Brady as he did it to help out the class. Thats why I like the Supers and the group of drivers involved. |

Title: Re: WCSS - BUD Nationals UPDATES Post by over4t on 10/10/11 at 3:11pm Don't know where pitter was seeing the turn 1 incident from as you sure get different opinions from different vantage points but I suggest you check ou the onboard view from the 68j car. Should make it pretty apparent what happened. The 68j was trying to trap the 66, the 66 was doing his best to lap the 4T, the 4T was holding a line right against the wall just as you're supposed to do and 66 didn't have him cleared when he slid up just a little and he made contact with 4T. In other words all 3 were doing just what they should do and that's why it's called racing. Don't see any fault with anyone. Bakoresults says the yellow was called for the spinning car in 3-4 just before so we're glad 66 got his spot back and he and Simpkins had a good race. Thanks to everyone in the SS class for a clean race and to the 68j for the video. |

I don't think Jeremiah really knew I was there. We never touched for sure, In fact I rolled out of the gas to make sure we didn't touch. If you look at the out cam his nose to the crash wall while the white flag is being thrown and still under green. I accept the fact they didn't see it and I'm not taking anything away from Jeremiah, I'd jump back in line to. As far as the call, if 2 different crashes are going on during one yellow all parties should be charged for the yellow and sent to the back. This wasn't a crash that happened because someone is slowing down to avoid an accident. They just both happened while the white was being thrown. One was seen, one wasn't. I agree I had a good race with everyone I was around except for Lee who blew our doors off. |

Title: Re: WCSS - BUD Nationals UPDATES Post by 03 on 10/10/11 at 4:43pm Lee was a rocket! His car went high and low very well. Some great side by side racing throughout the entire field. Just sucks when you mess up 1 time and 3 cars go by! Lol. Cant wait to race with all you guys again! Danny #03 |

Knock Knock, Is anybody out there? Hello, I am just now recovering from that party. LOL. What a party, whooooo!!! I wantto thank Lee for being the pilot off the car, awsome driver. I want to thank David Hays for his continuing support of the Super Street class, Scott S from Bako Speedway his SS support, all the other tracks for there SS support, Dave Tomkins (3D) for getting Lee @ myself hooked up as a team @ lastly to all the people that helped along the way. Thank You. It's still hard to believe. |

Title: Re: WCSS - BUD Nationals UPDATES Post by Cal SS All-Star Shootout on 10/10/11 at 7:00pm Sure was a Good Weekend!!!! CONGRADS again!!!! |

Title: Re: WCSS - BUD Nationals UPDATES Post by imracin68j on 10/10/11 at 7:13pm Larry, you deserve a lot of credit for putting a piece of equipment like that together. You guys both deserve everything that goes with winning the bud. |

Title: Re: WCSS - BUD Nationals UPDATES Post by hogracer3d on 10/10/11 at 7:51pm Crap, Now I know what Dr Frakenstein felt like... "I may have created a monster!" Lol, I better buy some better sh!t........ ;) |
|
Title: Re: WCSS - BUD Nationals UPDATES Post by over4t on 10/10/11 at 7:52pm Awesome job by Larry and Lee with a "used" car. Too bad Dave and Chris had trans woes with the 3D or it might have been a all Mottsinger show. If Mr. Mottsinger were still with us and building cars VC might be a little nervous. Might even make a convert out of a dedicated leafer like me. |

Yeah, thanks Dave T. Thanks everyone for all the nice thoughts. One thing though, while I feel really good about this victory, I know that these 3 link cars can be a lot more humbling than my old leaf car was. Hopefully we can keep it close and keep on trucking. One funny thing, we made a big adjustment at Pahrump to get the car to turn for me, but it still had monster forward bite. I was going to blaze the tires in front of the crowd after doing the interview at the Bud Nats, I mashed the gas pedal and that thing just jumped forward, and about run me into the pit exit. Larry has that thing getting awesome forward bite. I'm so glad Dave T agented that deal for Larry and I. I don't know if I'm over the party(s) yet! |

Title: Re: WCSS - BUD Nationals UPDATES Post by Cal SS All-Star Shootout on 10/10/11 at 8:25pm I don't know if I'm over the party(s) yet! Yea I was alittle slower than normal the past couple days :P |
|
Title: Re: WCSS - BUD Nationals UPDATES Post by propit21 on 10/10/11 at 8:28pm can you share the secert for that forward bite, some of us could use a little thanks. :D |

Title: Re: WCSS - BUD Nationals UPDATES Post by hogracer3d on 10/10/11 at 8:31pm I heard he had 3-500's, and 1 G60, that must be it...... |

You'll have to ask Larry. All I did was loosen it up so it would turn, I don't know what he did to make it have forward bite like that. wrote on 10/10/11 at 8:35pm:
G60 on the RR. Not sure why. I didn't ask many questions. |

Title: Re: WCSS - BUD Nationals UPDATES Post by Bill_Griffin on 10/10/11 at 9:46pm Wanted to say Thanks to Brady & Tina Bell for all the help and Jerry p. for letting me drive the 54x.. Had a blast racing the S.S Class which I found very competitive & a lot of clean fun racing!!!! Made some new friends and hope to race with you guys again sometime...... B.G. Congrats to LEE who smoked us!!! |

Title: Re: WCSS - BUD Nationals UPDATES Post by Cal SS All-Star Shootout on 10/10/11 at 9:52pm Bill come to Hanford on Oct. 28 & 29 |
|
Title: Re: WCSS - BUD Nationals UPDATES Post by imracin68j on 10/10/11 at 9:55pm Lee, after giving me a verbal lashing for misleading people on my gear selection can you clue us in on the gear you were on. After we all went out and bought 6.2s you sold us on. lol |
|
Title: Re: WCSS - BUD Nationals UPDATES Post by jrtracing on 10/10/11 at 10:05pm LOL!!! 6.66, I was surprised when I wasn't on the chip at the flagstand! |
|
Title: Re: WCSS - BUD Nationals UPDATES Post by imracin68j on 10/10/11 at 10:17pm Looks like the joke was on us guys. Lee trying to save all the honeypot setups for himself. I guess we can use our 6.2's at Hanford. lol |
|
Title: Re: WCSS - BUD Nationals UPDATES Post by propit21 on 10/10/11 at 10:22pm yeah we did a gear change before we even hit the track and didn't even come close to the range we were shooting for. change from 6.33 to 6.50 |

Then I only turned 6300 in the main.I'm still a bit confused, but whatever works. I've actually won like 6 or 7 at Bako over the last couple years on the 6.20, but I guess 6.66 works too! |
|
Title: Re: WCSS - BUD Nationals UPDATES Post by SS72 on 10/11/11 at 12:15am Thank You everyone for the congratulations. In 1991 Chris Smith with his car & me in my car, went to our first Bud Nationals, ever since then I have been trying to win any main event @ Bako, whether it be in a LM, Mod or SS. Now 20 years later with only his second time in the car, Lee Jensen gives me the main event win of life time. I can't thank him enough, also his wife, Skinny and all the supporters. Here's the secret, you put a 500 RF, LR and the G60 RR, here's the important one, don't turn around any of the tires on the wheels after any useage, LF is just there, you can put a tricycle tire on that, it's just for steering & appearance anyway, those were the same tires that was on it @ Pahrump, the week before. Just maintained tire pressure, stagger was @ about 3". Then you put a lock down shock on the LR and then you tell driver, just don't unlock the tires from the ground. :-?. |

Title: Re: WCSS - BUD Nationals UPDATES Post by imracin68j on 10/11/11 at 10:48am Lee, your so far in front the only time you're in the video in victory lane! lol |
|
Title: Re: WCSS - BUD Nationals UPDATES Post by SS72 on 10/11/11 at 12:19pm Seriously, there is no real secrets in that car. It's just general knowledge and how you put it all together, I am no rocket sciencetist, but, I do believe Lee has piloted a fighter jet before. :) |

Title: Re: WCSS - BUD Nationals UPDATES Post by imracin68j on 10/11/11 at 12:24pm You were suppose to say, "I'm no rocket scientist but I did stay at a Holliday Inn last night." |

Title: Re: WCSS - BUD Nationals UPDATES Post by SS72 on 10/11/11 at 12:29pm Your right!! Dag Gum It!! That's that Alsheimers kicking in again. ;D |

Title: Re: WCSS - BUD Nationals UPDATES Post by Sparky56 on 10/11/11 at 5:40pm Larry did his homework, but rumor has it he can be seen in his shop in a white coat carrying a clipboard ;D ;D ;D It's all in bar angle, coil length and rate! Good thing most of them got leafs......... |
|
Title: Re: WCSS - BUD Nationals UPDATES Post by hogracer3d on 10/11/11 at 8:21pm Maybe the 72 was dropping some oil, that made everybody else slip |
|
Title: Re: WCSS - BUD Nationals UPDATES Post by jrtracing on 10/11/11 at 8:23pm We set up the bar 90 degrees to the trailer, and had a long coil of ice chests around it. With it set up like that, the rate of consumption is pretty good. There weren't many trees by where we partied, so leaves weren't that big of an issue. Lol. As far as the car, we raised the panhard bar on the rear end, checked pressures, and raced it. Larry had all the hard part done. |
