I know exactly where shes at and still wish we could get faster than we are!! it was awesome and just goes to prove when its your turn to win no matter how much "luck" you can build for yourself there is always the person with a horseshoe up their a** whose gonna have a better day...

I dislike points systems....period....It always leaves room for "issues" to develop like is being talked about right here...

Wanna make it right......


Go back to the old days......Race for the title...
One race made up of Division Champions and maybe a couple more positions from each division....

Make it somewhere that is fair for everyone to get to and not in November so weather is not such a big issue......

Winner is the champ and subject to a teardown....

You win your division or are a high finisher......your in the race for the National title......You win that race your the Champ.....Just like the All Star race.....or even the Bracket series race......Division winners race for the National Title....

IHRA does exactly this. Look at the support it receives.

I think I probaly am in the majority when I say the no burnout deal is the biggest deal and raises alot of questions.

Lambeck's car was hurt

They are friends and consummate racers

As a professional courtesy since the race was over Lambeck and he agreed - why race

If Lambeck did not show up for final round he would not get runner-up (money) -- ask Ken Etter about that from last week in Las Vegas

Not just my HO

Well doesn't everyone just feel silly now. The drama was entertaining though.

Congradulations to Justin Lamb for the "NHRA 2013 Stock Eliminator Championship".

I looked at DRC round to round, and as a bracket racer, I've seen far more mistakes made against another racer in a given day. With that said, if you look at what Mr. Lamb did in each round, you'll be able to see that he did his job on the tree against all his opponents that day. He lost to a close breakout race by both racers. In bracket racing the one with the better light usually breaks out the most, he just took a little too much stripe. If there was anything going on not on the up and up, it stands to reason that he would have had late lights along with other people breaking out by 3 thenths against him.

It appears he did not.

Does the track get to keep the Runner Up money,or does the Winner then get it?
