TOG you need to hook me up with a box of Speed hats or something I can pass around the WOO race in Calistoga April 2nd.
Need to get the Outlaw crowd to be aware of Speed.

Got a place to stay in Eldorado Ranch but no PP.

I love it when the truck is "riding high"! Only 8 guys to pass to get clean air!

J.R the water mister is not internal. The water is sprayed over the exterior of the shock body. The first 75 miles of San Felipe are all hard core whoops. Like Nickspeed said RG broke a shock last year and he was running the air ducts to help. If you look most TT's have contoured air ducts built into the door panels. These are for function not looks. The Riviera and Norman TT's both run RGM shocks and both trucks are designed to run to spares stacked for the long races. For San Felipe those trucks will run one tire and in place of the other tire is an aluminum tank that holds about 30 or 40 gal of water. Once the shock temps get up there, the co-rider can hit a switch turning on a water pump shooting water on the rear shocks.

At the mid way point when you will do your driver change, fuel and or tire changes they will pull the water tank off the rack and finish the lower half of the course. Since RG's TT is designed for only one tire, I dont know where he would put a large enough tank. But RG is a very smart guy and if this is the plan, I'm sure he will or has already figured out what he is going to do.

Capt Allen, a few teams back in the day had done something like what your talking about. Simon & Simon had some pretty radical shocks on their TT. When they got out of racing and sold the truck they kept the shocks.
