Mine were terrible though. I would make a few great runs, then call for an official one and I would cone or brake too late or something stupid like that.1990 accord Honda-Challenge, H22 powered

It all happened when I went in the trailer and started announcing. The guy entering in the cars when they wanted an official run was entering in a block that was already on course, when he should have been putting it on the next slot. I was hesitant to say anything though, since I have never worked timing, or even seen the software before.Gary A.K.A. Carter

I have done that before, but only when hitting a cement wall. But now as a precaution I weld the balljoint into the arm as I have heard of others having this problem. You may be able to save that one by hammering it back in, spot welding it, and repacking a new boot with grease.1990 accord Honda-Challenge, H22 powered

would the heat from the welding affect how the ball sits inside the joint though?
