2008 Q&A
. . . . . . . .
 |
|
A |
We filmed in their
Janesville, Wis., store. It was fun, but it was
a long night. We shot most of it after the store
closed. It was a lot of fun and a neat
experience to be able to include my dad and
Ross.

Q |
Why does the gas
man shake the empty gas can prior to you leaving
the pit box? Thank you for keeping this “Ask
Matt” section alive, I really enjoy it.
Don Peacock, Buffalo, N.Y. |

Thanks for
participating; I have been enjoying it as well.
When the gas man shakes his can, he’s letting us
all know the tank is full. When the catch can
starts filling up, he knows the tank is full,
and since his hands are full he shakes the empty
can. That lets Chip know it’s full, but more
importantly it lets the the jack man know as
well. The jack man makes sure the car is full
and the tire changers are done before he drops
the jack and lets me go.

Q |
Hey Matt, I was
wondering what wedge is? I know it has to do
with something on the car. I just don’t know
what.
Tim Poole, Raleigh, N.C. |
|
A |
Wedge is the
crossweight in the car, the percentage of static
weight on the left rear and right front.
Basically the more wedge, or crossweight, you
have, the tighter the car will be, to a point.
It’s one of the few things we can adjust rather
quickly on a pit stop.
