I found out this morning that both of Dale's SS cars had being DQ after the race last night.
I (Cash Racing) cut both sets of Dale's wheels, when I cut them they weight 2.0 grams on my scales so I called John (DD4H) this morning and he said they looked light so they pulled the orange wheels which was the slower car and they weight 1.899 grams on his jeweler's scales, so while I had him on the phone I ask him to pull the car with black wheels and weight them, he did and they were 2.0 grams and legal, but he already made the decision to DQ both cars, and on my scales the black wheels weight 2.1 grams. So unfortunately I know now my scales weight .1 light, which is to bad cause Dale had a fast car.

I don't want to get a nasty war going but I am very certain Dale was aware of the wheel weights. The different wheels on each car were .1 grams different and there would be no reason to cut a 2.1 wheel. This is not a new issue and I refuse to let him play the role of the victim and refuse to allow this to become yet another issue to try and create here to try and drag our organization down. We don't use illegal methods for success to try and build a fake record of accomplishment here. All racers will be treated equally and this is the venue for a racer to get a fair race and a legitimate shot to succeed NO MATTER whos product they use. We do not tout products we don't use. Everyone is welcome here until they abuse their privilage and in turn effect the other racers experience.
 
I would like to add here that I was at the race and the wheels in question were not pulled and checked until after said car was eliminated on times.
