Heard there was a Thunder Roadster that got caught this time with tampered seals?
You figure that after the bandolero getting caught earlier this year everyone would have taken a look at their seals!
Anyone know who it was and how they found them?

sounds fishy to me? they don't take points away for a illegal part on the 98 car and when the 14 car asks about it they impound the motor from the 14 car.  |

I heard the entire car was taken over to USLegndcars.....not just the engine....
I had not heard about the 98 car exhaust issue though....

The 98 exhaust issue was a little sketchy, but the official word was that the muffler was confiscated, they said it was not hollowed out, that all the inside parts of it were "worn out".

Funny huh?? The golden boy with the horrible haircut has an illegal exchaust and does not get DQ'd....I guess it pays to buy cruises for the tech guys!

Like I said sounds fishy to me. If they would have DQ him the points would have been less than 10 point from 1st to 2nd the next week.

Ok,
I have a solution! Why doesn't tech just impound the top cars and put them on a chassis dyno? Nascar Cup does this all the time.
If you are over the baseline your car gets tore apart. If you violate the rules you loose your points for the year, suspended or fined.
Isn't the class about who is the best driver and chassis guy?
This is how ASA caught several guys cheating in 2000!
I know there are chassis dynos avalible in the industrial park.
STOP allowing teams to modify tires! This includes cambering, shaving or soaking!
