Proposal and NHRA and IHRA Responses

Ed Carpenter · 06-07-2017, 10:08 AM

I've had some email saying you have to have a 100k car to qualify in the top 10. You're proposal is for the rich. Well, I dont think that's true. I know several racers that can qualify in the top 10 that dont have nearly that much in their car. After 11 years we are finally getting our car to run decent. We've had the power with Allen's engine but could never put it all together. We are close to -.90 under now and working for more. Can we ever get in the top 10 in qualifying that remains to be seen. We will find out soon enough. Thanks for all those who support my proposals, I appreciate it. Ed
