AMEN TO THAT!!! I am glad to see that there are still racers out there who understand the value of performance. Many will never understand why we treasure those Class Winner Wally's. It does break my heart to see events going the direction like what is happening this week. The positive side of this is that similar complaints were voiced 20 years ago and Class racing has survived (of course it would be better if it could grow more rather than just surviving.) As long as there are still those like us who's passion is with the performance aspects this type of racing will continue. The new COPO's, Cobra Jets and Drag Packs would not exist if this type of racing was truly dying.
