Does "do as I say not do as I do" fit the situation?If he gets in anyone who has a 1 or a o
should call Glendora for a "clarification".
I'd like to see if they pull the owner/different driver crap.I know someone who inquired about entering his car and wanted someone else to drive.They were told the driver needed enough grade points or no go.

Re: Entering gatornationals no grade points
 

Have you looked at the car counts for Gainesville? If he goes to Bradenton next week or Gainesville the following week. He will have a grade point
And it looks like that will get him in.

Re: Entering gatornationals no grade points
 

Maybe she has enough grade points for him to enter the Gators.

Re: Entering gatornationals no grade points
 

If I understand this correctly,the driver that will be racing in Super Gas is KURT Busch.
I believe he was the Nascar Champ in 2004.

According to the NHRA website:

Former Professional *or* Sportsman national champs will be confirmed entry to any national event in any category

Does that sentence say that you have to be a "Drag Racing" champion?

He is a former Professional National Champ (you ASSUME they mean in Drag Racing)

Maybe thats how he gets in?

Re: Entering gatornationals no grade points
 

It is Kurt that is going to run Super Gas......my flub.....!!
I was distracted by the sweater........:-)

Re: Entering gatornationals no grade points
 

Stretching it a bit could the winner of the Soap Box Derby be qualified under this rule?
How about the famous tortoise from the Tortoise and the Hare story?

Re: Entering gatornationals no grade points
 

If she doesn't I'll give up my entry to her ............

Getting feisty in your old age eh Jack.

Re: Entering gatornationals no grade points
 

I always thought the PAST CHAMPION deal had a "within 3-years catch"

Should make them "ALL RUN" anyway.... :rolleyes:

Re: Entering gatornationals no grade points
 

He may have bought her those bolt ons. Other photos seem to show a smaller fascia.

Re: Entering gatornationals no grade points
 

EXCELLENT investment!

Re: Entering gatornationals no grade points
 

Yeah Im thinking changing to Endura or elastomeric bumpers has its drawbacks, it would seem that you are weakening something that when altered would suffer from added and obvious stresses , hope they dont crack under load.

Then again, if my "car" had a set of "bumpers" like that I would have little interest in racing......

I dont think Id leave my house for 2 years.

Thats the whole single point of racing, to become rich and famous (no im not serious) so I can get me one of them "New and Improved Models"

Re: Entering gatornationals no grade points
 

There are way too many Stupor/Gassers as it is.......
Throttle stops are a CURSE to racing.......!!

Re: Entering gatornationals no grade points
 

Like the funny man ( Larry the Cable guy ) says --"now that there is funny" .....................

Re: Entering gatornationals no grade points
 

Totally different topic,but actually there are so many real fast S/C cars they should drop the class and most could run T/D.Same for some S/G door cars going to T/S.I'll bet this will get a few happy comments.

Re: Entering gatornationals no grade points
 

can you imagine the pile up in the back of the lanes for that one?

Re: Entering gatornationals no grade points
 

Ed, you should know better. ...There are only a very few SG DOOR cars that can run fast enough to qualify in T/S,There are practically no door cars in S/C........ Even fewer that meet the rules requirements....... Roadsters can't run T/S. .......I will only say to the other comment, that I compete in both Stock and S/G and have many friends in the Shoepolish classes who dont share your opinion. ...........Shoepolish and overweight cars in class are just another form of throttlestop. ........................Take a look at the thread on Busch on the Super forum,we are the ones directly effected by entries like this one. ..............Tom

Re: Entering gatornationals no grade points
 

I figured that would catch your eye Tom.I only added the S/G cars to spice it up.I do believe that alot of the S/C cars could be shuffled over to T/D with a 64 car field for divisional events.You're 100% right about these ringers being let in on a whim.

I'm aware of that Tom,still my opinion.I've never driven on the straight and narrow.No sense changing this late in life.

Re: Entering gatornationals no grade points
 

"way too many" hmmmmm....tells me that SG is a very popular class....now how can that be a curse :confused: :rolleyes:

Re: Entering gatornationals no grade points
 

It's GREAT ,creating time for a run to the potty and concession stands or to the pits !!

Re: Entering gatornationals no grade points
 

That's not a boy, is it? :D

Re: Entering gatornationals no grade points
 

Yep....and that's exactly how NHRA wants it.....and why they have all those concessions....$$$$$$ Spectators come to watch the pro's not sportsman ;)
