You nailed it when you said that this very well could have cost you your life and nobody is going to man up and take responsibility for the cause of the damage internally it seems so best to just put it behind you and chalk it up as a learning experience so that next time you will know better and remember this is racing like Tommy said shit does happen but it's how you recover from it and learn from that makes a great racer!

Man the car was freaking amazing with that 29 on it...... Can't wait to see you get it all fixed and back out, but you have a winner in the back up position as well... Bring out the S10!!!!!! Hopefully the Nova is fixed by Oct 8th..... That's a tall order, but if anyone can get it done its the SRC Team...... Hope Big Rob and Kenny make it to I29......

    From Steve Morris article
    If we have to add weight, we don’t simply add on metal or weld pieces on - that’s a lower-end way of doing things. What we always do is we simulate what weight needs to be added to the crank using a bolt at first.”
    When adding weight to the crankshaft, you use what is called mallory metal, which is quite a bit heavier than the steel of the counterweights. When adding mallory, you should always press it into the side of the crankshaft counterweight rather than the top.

    “Pressing it into the side makes it impossible for any weight to come out as the crankshaft is rotating around,” Morris says. “If someone were to weld mallory into a hole on the top of the counterweight, a lot times what can happen is it can fly off the crank and shoot through your oil pan, causing oil to drain onto the track and likely sending you into the wall. That’s why if you need to add weight, we always add mallory metal into the side. We even add a little bit of weld to ensure that it will never slide back and forth.”

    When Joey aka ( Beater Bomb) came to commiserate Billy not only did he just say how bad he felt about the crash but he provided us with yet another demonstration of how humble that man is by him handing Billy his winnings. This shows us all that there's some absolute giants in the racing game of which he is outstanding in his moral compass others need to take note of Joey.

If they did then that’s stupid as fk! I’ve always balanced mine by drilling through the throw of the crank from front to back or vice versa never up and down because centrifugal force will definitely sling it out.

    Glad you didn't get hurt Billy! Mallory flying off of crankshafts has been a problem for years with folks that don't know how to properly install it. Kind of knew something was fishy when the car was running after the crash and it still sounded good. I wonder if you could find a reputable frame shop and get a base line check for the car. They could pull the horns back in shape. Can't wait to see that Nova back, its one bad Hot rod. You both need to get some roll bar padding in your cars! Hans device or a horse collar. And get those seatbelts pulled tight....Tommy was pretty loose in that seat! We can replace racecars...... ❤

So seeing what really happened made better sense. What a massive screw-up!
