Mike, Tom, and Tad in studio, Crunch got caught in traffic and in for the last bit of the show.
Dale Cubic CFM Carburetion and Tom Martino MB Racing Engines
This is by far the most informative episode of the show yet. This was a great listen.
If you think you know enough about carburetors, think again. Dale Cubic of CFM carburetion scratches the surface of what carburetion is really like at the highest levels of competition. Some of the NHRA Pro Stock tidbits should be enough to show what really goes into this. Dale also give his opinion on the rule changes to NHRA Pro Stock, not from the perspective of a carburetor vendor, but from a person involved in the drag racing industry. Dale details the classes that need carburetor enhancements due to other areas of technology affecting his business.
The Pro Stock rules have lots of people talking. Tom Martino of MB Race Engines, 7 time NHRA national event winner, and 14th driver to be added to the NHRA Pro Sock 200MPH club, calls in. He has a very good perspective on the NHRA Rules changes and the problems for teams, big and small, to conform to the new rules. Tom gives the privateer perspective of the impact of these changes. Tom is quite candid, and gives some insights about the actual time and cost involved in campaigning a NHRA Pro Stock over the course of the year.
