    Notes from PRI -

    TAD - B/AD minimum weight adjustment is still under consideration.

    TAFC - 2275 will be the new minimum weight for next year

    Carbon stove pipes are back in - they will just have to have the inside fireproof coated.

    Back to your regularly scheduled programming....

    I was told the minimum for TAFC was staying the same at 2250.
    Does anyone know when NHRA is going to post rule revisions?

    There was a note in dragster about having "factory crimped" oil line fittings on top of having the lines pressure tested. We called earls, and they said that they didn't have the capacity to custom build every person's oil lines. They said they were going to PRI, and were planning on talking to NHRA about it. Did you hear anything about that?

    weight

    to the best of my understanding the issue was to keep the cost of making weight down with the super rear ends teams run these days.
