Thanks so much for taking us with you to Rocket's shop. They have a nice setup for sure. That race shop and toter and trailer setup is something most guys just get to dream of having. I hope you got some of those new smashed shocks for the 21 season. Hope the updates to the car help you to be up front next year. We got to be sure we get a good Engine to put in that thing!!

I also watch Hunt the Frunt check them out if you get a chance they do a lot with a small team like you do. I helped build cars for 4 years in the early 90's and I do miss it. Have great day thank you for the videos.

Smash is short for dyno'n or setting pressure or spring rate, without scaling a car. At least this has always been my understanding. Which I am sure that people can add more too the meaning of spring smasher.
@FaCtOrYsUzUkI945
@FaCtOrYsUzUkI945 3 жыл бұрын
Yes. That way we can make spring changes without changing the balance of the car. Also helps us know exactly what wheel load works better or worse. Can see what the car is doing at dynamic load since the car is never at Ride height on the race track. Really really helpful tool
@TheCrewChief374
@TheCrewChief374 3 жыл бұрын
@@FaCtOrYsUzUkI945 well I can see that. The thing that is missing for me is the fact that when scaling a car or making a change. One thing that was always made important too me by some truly good chassis men was too unload the same amount in the opposite corner like if you put a round in the LR, you would take one out of the RF for example. Which is the only thing I would have a reservation, about solely using a spring smasher
@FaCtOrYsUzUkI945
@FaCtOrYsUzUkI945 3 жыл бұрын
@@TheCrewChief374 we still do the whole take or add rounds. For the rf we always check the 3 1/2 and 4 in number wince thats where it spends most of its time. Lets say when you smash the rf with a bump stop your load number is 2300 lbs at 3 1/2. Well the car would never be able to do that on the track cause the car only weighs 2350, it physically couldn’t move the rf that far. So it also helps see if whatever shock spring combo you have will even work. With the LR we check extended load at whatever droop number. Its a very interesting process lol

No need to feel like that because on dirt track racing the conditions are constantly changing as long as you're not out of the horsepower game you got a fighting chance and old CJ knew what he was doing l love shity track conditions that throws everyone off their game plan and a brand new rocket chassis can be beat by a older chassis
