Default Bill Skillman 2022 Gatornationals

The well known auto dealer out of Indiana is ready to throw his hat back into the NHRA Factory Showdown ring after taking the NMCA championship three years in a row. An exciting heads-up drag racing class, Factory Showdown is the main platform for the big three domestic automakers to show off their most updated muscle car advancements of the last few years. However, this horsepower must be transferred to a 9" wide rear tire which makes for quite the tuning challenge!

With this week’s “parity adjustment” (i.e. let’s make yet another Camaro class) will Bill pull the plug on FS?

I don't think Bill would run from his business if he had a challenge, I don't
see him running from this challenge.

Bubski is like WTF!! If a Camaro wins and it beats another Camaro on performance life is great !! If a Ford wins out of the couple of them in the eliminator than it is a most agregious event in FS history and they must be punished immediately to give back the nice Chevy guys their advantage !! Just make it like IROC already with just Camaro's What a mess !! Why don't they rate the Fords properly in Stock n SuperStock like they should to make life more fair ??

The NHRA has screwed up the FSS just as badly as they have screwed up Pro Mod.

Makes you wonder why anyone would build a car for the FX class; besides a Camaro anyway.

So did NHRA really adjust the parity this week?

Sucks because the parity was close across the brands.

It’s the same old same old with NHRA they could screw up a wet dream over and over. Look at Pro Mod and how they’ve ruined Pro Stock which is on its death bed!
