Time to start teching some cars!!!! Glancing under the hood is not teching.  The attitude in the pits is run what ya brung cuz they know your not looking. I know of at least 3 illegal carbs that are being run and Tim Krape's is one of them. I know a few of the drivers that are running legal have complained and more or less got told to quit whining. It's pretty bad that last year the prostocks went 7 races without a repeat winner and this year the same guy has won 6 times and two of those wins he put the bumper to the leader to get by him and then brags about it in his interview and you guys do nothing about it. |

Case in point. Went to Central Pa. Speedway last night. If you haven't been there, it is a HORSEPOWER track. Their street stocks run 406's with 4 barrel carbs and triple disc clutches. Krape ran away with his heat and finished 3rd in the feature. Walked by his car and he was running the same rochester 2 barrel he runs at Port and Clinton County. There is no way that car is legal!!!!!

It's like that at several area tracks! It seems as though the tech teams don't want to be bothered or else the promoters tell them to cast a blind eye!

actually Tim had a 4412 on his car for Central PA... apparently you dont know what a rochester carb looks like. As far as the car being legal is concerned, I'm not sure what you think is illegal on the car.

I was there too.. Not going to go as far as saying he's illegal, but, he sure has more horsepower than I've got. I know he's been driving a long time, but, for a supposed 355 with a 2 BBL and a stock clutch to keep up with 383's and 406's with 4BBLs, on a track where horsepower is key???
It has to make you wonder....

I'll agree the motor does have a lot of power, however that motor hasn't been freshened since the start of the 09 season. Steve Byers built that motor to run a small 2 BBL carb. He tried a 4 barrel at Central PA either last year or 2 years ago and couldnt get the car to run right. The clutch is stock as well. I know I've worked on his cars for the last 18 years of my life

I'm actually his nephew.... and he's been called a cheater since he started racing Novas at port with junk yard motors. All the Krape's can just drive.... It's kinda like how another 07 at Clinton County is called a cheater and that car has $1500 in it.... including buying the car

thats probably why Krape was all for Vern keeping the pro stock rules the way they are at CC for GAMBLERS if that would have went through because he knew he could run with them.. know he isnt 100% legal at CC

twisted,
thats why people have heard the the 07 4cyl car has 2-3000 in the motor itself... and if that car isnt cheating the why is the RR wheel angled in at the top?

bent suspension parts... that class is a demolition derby... as far as the $3000 motor.... I'm positive Matt would sell the motor for $1000 all day any day.

Im also sure the 50R has a bunch of money in the motor... and maybe the same thing has been said about the 77x... but regardless this thread is about Pro Stocks and 4 cylinders are a completely different story
