A man gave me the 1984 Pit Board sign for @RCRracing today. Says it was stolen out of the pits at a race back then, passed through many a hand. It’s legit and it’s going back home.
I love how Dale Jr. is holding it --- like they used to, standing out in pit road.

Did this car go through the OSS and inspections prior to being unwrapped?

NASCAR allowed RPM to “unwrap” the car today. This is what it will look like today (this scheme was underneath the wrap).
If so thats a load of BS especially after the commotion NASCAR made about certain schemes being disallowed.

More idiocy. Unbelievable.

The peeling off the wrap was an approved adjustment. They had an official there to make sure it was the only thing done.

Had to go back and delete my post saying the same thing. You are 100% correct. What a joke.

How about having an official there while the 48 pulls the fender? This is an absolute bunch of crap. Sorry. A complete joke.

Yes, but was the car wrapped during OSS?
Bob PockrassVerified account @bobpockrass
Car already was through tech with other scheme. No tech today unless top-5 or random

Drivers told under caution do not pull down to enter pit road until hitting the D in Darlington that is on the wall in Turn 4. Helps avoid a pulling up to pit penalty.

How do you know there wasn't, you get sent to the rear for fixing something that is broke or in J Earnhardt's case you spin out and need tires

So car passes tech, changes paint scheme and not put through tech again.
Unreal.

Theres probably no change and it will have zero effect on performance but the fact that the process wasn’t flagged by NASCAR just opens the door up for othet teams to get one passed inspection.
All the hooplah NASCAR made about paint schemes and applying white powder in the rear quarter panels is now moot after RPM basically changed the entire lower half of the car’s wrap scheme with no mess.

yeah that will make a hell of a difference, I am sure Nascar will open up the gates on that deal and double wrapped cars will be the standard.

For those making a stink about the 43, it was all part of the throwback festivities...
Rest assured, nobody will be able to catch them during the race .... you wasted a box of tissues

I don't think you got that quite right, but carry on, your quarky comments whenever I post something that might be significant and on topic and your attempt to make it personal are always welcomed.
