Darn forward drum

[Otto J]

Well back from bowling green and i have 2 broken forward drums to add to my collection, Tring to launch with 20+ pounds of boost just is too much with a stock drum. Also had a problem the second day with my lockup convertor trying to lock up when holding my foot to the floor on the brake. After tryin someone elses non lockup convertor just for fun it had a stall of 5800 on the brake! Tried the brake on the jackstands in the pits and BOOM!! there went the second forward drum. I guess i have to start saving for a billet one.

If you manage to break one of Bruce Toelle's forward drum (I don't care how), I will buy the cookies.

Otto, whatever you did for D Kereny WILL come back to you many fold. Richard (D I C K) is one major class act and wouldn't take advantage of anyone.

Otto,

That's terrible! I did the same thing testing in the garage!

I went back in with CK Performance's billet drum and input. Not too bad in price really. If I break one of these which I hope isn't the case I will sell all my 200's and go straight to a 400.

I am good friends with D I C K and he is a super nice guy, I have pitted with him the last 2 years. He deserves a break, he had some a lot of trans and engine problems at BG.
Otto was also parked near us and is a good guy.
We all had some GN problems this year and we will be better next year.
I still had a great time in BG and did not have any major breakage.
