Larry it happened in your D-3. Remember The Drooze.
I wasn’t there but I heard things
He went 120 under passed scale came back light.

These guys have hooked up with Chevrolet and a group of engineers to bring a 750 hp electric car into Stock Eliminator. They apparently aren't worried about how the game is played as long as it works for them.

Jeff Lane has always run a first class program. Would reserve judgment until more is known....

I really don't have a dog in this fight except my brother has my old Corvette and runs the same class. Different year and engine parts. If someone makes a time shot and they are light going across the scales not matter what they went for a time the run should not count. We see it all the time. Someone DQ'd at the bottom of the list on their first time run. So if you go across the scales light even though you went 1.20 or more why should it count. What if someone wanted to ruin a combo. Drop 200 lbs out of the car go 1.30 under. When you cross the scale should that run count. Now the difference here is some of you are saying he played with weight at the top end before going across the scales. Did any of you see it? Did anyone from NHRA see it? If not run should not count. If someone intentional plays with weight after a run at the top end before they hit the scales and an NHRA official see's it different story. Be careful wishing someone to get HP it could be your combo next. BP

Wouldn't playing with vehicle weight after a run before you cross the scales get you a year off or more instantly?

We as Stock and Super Stock “class racers” need to see that the rules are followed these days! If someone is out there blatantly cheating, and get caught, they need to face the music with the proper penalties! It is not ok for daddy to call an NHRA higher up and have his kid’s DQ from the race reversed! We need to take a stand and demand he gets the discipline he deserves!!! If not, it will just continue to happen! Does anyone on here think this is fair?

Let’s see who has a set!!! Contact your rep and demand he gets dq’d from the race, takes a 0 for points and gets a year vacation!

Mr. Worner you are 100% correct. This type of activity does not slide east of the Mississippi and should not in nay of the 7 divisions.
Too many things going on in particular with that race team. If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck then it is a duck. Cody Lane and team are labeled as CHEATERS and the wins will always have an asterisk and no respect given.

B Parker · 07-15-2019, 02:20 PM

I agree if you are caught changing your weight before you go on the scales after a run there should be a penalty and HP if deemed so. I just haven't heard anyone come on hear and say he was caught by an NHRA official. Bryan I don't think anyone should get away with breaking the rules if caught. So far I have only heard speculation as to what happened. If he was caught by an official then they need to take the right actions. Anyone at the race care to elaborate as to what really happened.

If there is no video or picture or a human being there ..it didn’t happen
Sorry to inform you folks

That’s me bitching. Now
