Bill, I started this thread for the people that are building a car out 
of chrome moly tubing. In all the race cars I have built ( over 20 ) I 
have never used chrome moly so I know very little about working with it. 
I have a good friend that builds super modifieds. Of course they are 
made with c/m tubing. Another good friend is a crew chief on a funny 
car. From what I understand there has been a real  hassle among funny 
car builders about heat treating or normalizing c/m. Because of money, 
politics and ego's I don't know if the truth will ever come out from 
NHRA. So I would dig very deep into why Johns car broke on my own if I 
was going to use c/m.
 Lets just say I was not a bit surprised John will not have Ashely drive 
one of her cars this weekend.
Not trying to start trouble, just a heads up.         Doug Odom in big ditch
