Unfortunately the present position of the judges is NO Black Out and they will not look or consider anything else. That changed this year so expect to loose 5-6 points on rear suspension and another 4 on front however that's not a big number.
    Alan,
    I hope, that's only a matter of "re-training" the judges.

      Marco, that looks real good. On your second picture from the left (showing the face of the drum) I noticed the drum tang is not in the hub's drill start. I'm pretty sure the reason for those features are to keep the drum in the position the drum and hub were balanced . Its always good to keep the drums matched to the hubs they were removed from.Good luck on judging, Bob

        Bob,
        Wasn't certain about that. I always have the drum machined with the matching hub and mark them so they are reassembled the correct way. It looked as the drum was clocked like this for a while, it had shadows on the hub. So I left it there.
        Thanks for your input.
        Marco
