So just out of curiosity what do you guys with the problems do if nhra never changes a thing?

For me personally I dont have to worry about running one of these cars heads up so that is not a factor and was one of the main reasons for building the combo I have. However I do not plan on attending any of the races where the new cars get a free pass but I am sure NHRA will not care.

Not our problem really it's there problem, if nothing changes it wont be to long before its all gone. The new cars do not have owners that will be around any longer than I will, how many new cars have young owners. What new blood is getting in super stock or stock with the new cars or the old cars! The pay outs do not justify the means anymore, we all know it's about over with we just keep hoping it will turn around. The only younger kids coming in to racing are the ones that are taking over there daddy's ride just as I did and that will not keep stock and super stock alive. Comp, Pro Stock and the fuelleys are in the same boat! To your real question, I will end up with the shoe polish in my hand at my local bracket race, because in the end I just want to race.

Maybe some will just do what Scott Burton did... just go to the next race and win the damn thing!

Mickey. Until NHRA puts them all in FS, FX or SS where they belong......, they wont get HP quick enough. Same class older iron don't have a chance against the new cars so why would I race them? I have nothing against the new cars or the folks who own them. I just think NHRA made a mistake.
