sounds like today is just a tnt grudge race day. DA right now about -1400
Right now at HRP - DA -440 , 53* / 54% , I have the HRP track app & it shows all the conditions right at the track, not at a near by airport like the other apps do.

The guy Tim Godby, (not sure if spelled last name right) that has been interview talking about the Demons & their event on live feed, is the guy I raced twice (qualifying & 10.0 index class) at Mopar Fest this past summer at HRP, beat me in 10.0 class, real good racer & nice guy.

I would like to know..is anyone able to find out how many of the rears that blew, if they had diff braces. And if yes, what type? I know probably not, but figure I’d ask. Would love that real world data...

I don't know the full story and don't really follow the Demon world anymore but it seemed like it was a touchy subject last year or the year before when a few of them broke and it made it to Youtube.

It seems like the brace would help but i would love to know if any of the 13 failed with a brace on.
