For someone that had "plenty more if he needs it" it's a good thing he's a hell of a driver because his light won him class. And before you say anything about a "keyboard racer" I was there watching live.

Ed the post is who is the baddest B/SA not who won class at Indy . As everyone always says the fastest car doesn't always win. And Bob there's no need to use those kind of words on this site as a wise man once told me its freedom of speech. All the cars were fast and are fast just if your going to give credit give credit where credits due.

The issue isn't free speech but of credibility, either you have it or you don't.

Your opinion without any credibility is meaningless.

To quote Tom Turner, who has been racing forever and has a lot of insight of race car packages, he explains it very well on his post:

http://classracer.com/classforum/showthread.php?t=67361

I thought the J Allen Sherman thread had ended but evidently not. On that thread, there was a fairly detailed discussion over a heads up race the J Allen lost (dumped). If you do the arithmetic; on the incremental s, he was on a high 9.80 pass. I think he can go as fast as he wants.....maybe into the 70's in good air. We will have to ask Billy but I know of no other team that is even in the same zip-code. This is a very stout effort; all HP factors aside. I will be surprised if he shows it all at Indy but I will bet you will see some of it....right up to the time for pictures.

The car has gone 9.80's what's your point?

There are other cars that have been 9.80s also. I'm not saying anything about the performance of anybody's cars because there have been a lot of fast B cars just look at all of them like I said before give credit where credit is due.

Jim, Gary, Al, and a few more are fast also. Allen has proven he's the best by his wins at Indy. Plus, he's been torn completely down to the crank and passed. Some people were insinuating he was cheating and in his words "that should shut them up".

Congrats to J. Allen on a great class win at Indy! He should write a book about this trip! If you look up the word perseverance in Webster's dictionary you will see his picture!
