Talking 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?

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

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

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.

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

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"
