"Get Paul Edwards for me." John was calling to get his engine mechanic's opinion on whether they should run. The data Tom put together indicated that temperature was not the problem, but John wanted to get Paul's direct assessment. Paul Edwards was a classic "gas station mechanic." His fingernails were permanently blackened by grease, and his coveralls never stayed clean for more than 2 minutes on Saturday mornings. He had been knocking around the professional circuit for 10 years after dropping out of high school at 16 to follow drag racing. He lacked the sophisticated engineering training that was getting more common in racing, but he did know racing engines. John had discussed the gasket problem with Paul 2 days ago. As he waited for Paul to come to the phone, he reflected on their previous conversation. Paul was a man of few words and was not given to overstatement. "The way I see it, the turbo-pressure during warm-up-in conjunction with the different expansion rates for the head and block-is doing a number on us," was about the extent of what Paul had to say on the problem. It was his personal opinion on the cause of the engine failures; he would never represent it was anything else. It was the same story John had heard 20 times, but it did not match Tom's data. "Paul, we have chewed this over before. How do you know this is the problem? When we ran at Riverside the temperature was 75 degrees, and we still lost the gasket and engine." "I am not sure what happened at Riverside," Paul had replied. "I am not sure that temperature is the problem, but it is the only thing I can figure out. It is definitely the gaskets that are blowing out and causing the engines to go." Part of Carter Racing's success was due to a unique turbo-charging system that Tom and John had developed. They had come up with a new head design that allowed them to get more turbo pressure to the engine while maintaining fuel consumption at a fairly constant level. By casting the head and turbo bodies in a high-strength aircraft alloy, they had also saved almost 50 pounds of weight. The alloy they were using was not as temperature sensitive as the material in the engine block, but the head gasket should be able to handle the different expansion rates. John could hear the sounds of race day in the background as Paul approached the phone. "Hello John," he said, obviously excited. "The Goodstone coveralls just got here. We are talking some fine threads. No sew-on patches from these guys. The logo on the back and our names are stitched right into the material. I guess this means we get to keep 'em. Course, I got some grease on mine already, so they probably won't want 'em back anyway." "I'm glad you like them," John said. "I need to get some information from you. What are we doing about the gasket failure business?" "The car is set up to go. We have been using a different seating procedure since Slippery Rock and had no problems for two races. Tom says the Goodstone deal is set as long as we finish in the money today. The boys in the shop want this bad. Goodstone is a class act. They can make us the number one team on the circuit if they decide to take us on." Instructions: Please consider what you have read in Part B. Make a recommendation on
