Yeah right. All the S/S automatic racers would be more than happy to give up their buttons and air shifters if they were to be combined with stick racers. Don't hold your breath looking for that to happen.

Ed, never worry about the naysayers. Heck, this country wouldn't exist if the colonists did!
I hope they (the HRA's) appreciate your effort, I do. |

The buttons are fine, I think the driver should have to shift themselves. We let go of the clutch and they let go of a.button. They adjust by using springs and shims. We as stick racers adjust by changing air gap.

Thanks for your hard work on this matter. As someone that enjoys setting Stock records, I would like to see NHRA return to posting both the 1/8th and 1/4 mile records in National Dragster.
