    Ryan is definitely on a roll, but he wasnt the only fast Dodge in todays race.  Ryan and Bill Elliot ran the fastest laps of the race during the last 30 laps, and were obviously faster than anyone else.  Tony Stewart was obviously wrong when he said the fastest car didnt win.  We know there were at least 3 Dodges that he could not catch. Mayfield was 3rd, & Rusty & Jamie were 7th & 8th I think.  Anyway, taht means Dodge was 1,2, 3, 7 & 8.  Two more Dodges were only a couple places back.   Pretty good Mopar day huh?    Roll on Dodge boys.    Ovmf

    Every time some body ( anybody ) wins a race on fuel strategy, some one yells cheat.  I suppose over the years there probably has been some one who did, but dont you think that they have been over Ryans' car w/ 2 fine toothed combs????    Just about every major team has won a fuel contest some time or other.   And Ryan is doing it while still leading many many laps' & running the fastest laps of the race too.  That team really has their stuff together!!!   Go Mopars!!!   Ovmf

    Ryan is deffanetly on a roll. I for one am tired of Tony the winer every week complaining of someone cheating because he didn't end up winning. A few weeks back while comming in third(most guys would have been happy with third) he cryed and was so happy he had won a dirt track race the night before, otherwise he would probably have hung himself. What a looser!!!

    Just found this link/story from Jayski's:

    http://jayski.thatsracin.com/

    ******************************************

    #12's secret? smaller carb? With all the talk about Ryan Newman’s race strangling fuel runs of late it’s no wonder that many of his peers are frustrated to the point where they’re hurling accusations. But the story behind Newman & Company’s fuel secret crawled out of the bag and into the lap of TFR [Team Ford Racing]. The secret to the formula — bigger is not always better in Winston Cup. The NASCAR specifications for a carburetor allow a carburetor will flow up to 830 cubic feet per minute maximum. Newman’s men have found if they run a carb that flows 750 cfm that they give up only two horsepower to what the bigger carb delivers. That smaller carb, without 2 hp, brings the team about 0.5 miles per gallon extra in fuel consumption. Taking that 0.5 mpg and working it with the 22-gallon NASCAR-specified fuel cell, you see that Newman has an 11-mile cushion compared to his competitors. Meaning that Newman could run an extra seven laps at a 1.5-mile track, such as is found at Lowe’s Motor Speedway. Unfortunately for the Alltel team the secret is starting to filter out to some of the other teams, however, the power lost to the smaller carb is not quite at the level that the Penske motor men are capable of recapturing, but darn close. Give those who have started to experiment with the smaller carb a few weeks and any deficit should soon disappear.(Ford Racing)(10-13-2003)

    Going back a few years, guys like Jr. Johnson used the tubes of the roll cage to hold an extra gallon or so, but the tech guys at Nascar have seen all these tricks now, so it isn't likely anyone could pull something like that again.  Speaking of smaller carbs, even Holley has gotten in the game.  I recently read an article that show an engine actully pulling more HP w/ the 650cfm Avenger Holley than w/ their own 750 performance model.  I'm sure there are lots of ways to finagel MPG w/o losing too much HP.  And, I'll bet most of the big teams are working on it too!!!!   Go Ryan, Bill, Jeremy, Jamie, Rusty, Sterling, Kyle, Jimmy, Ward, & all the rest of the Dodge gang.!!!!  Ovmf
