This is for Top Sportsman, not us.

This drive shaft issue is a pain. They want to make T/S put them on but, if you do not make all the classes that run the speed and ET we run, how does it make safety sense??? If for instance a comp car like Greco, runs on the same lane I just ran at the same speed and ET, why would his class not need the same safety equip. that I am required??? It makes no sense at all and this is where the NHRA is just so full of themselves.....

Just when you thought it was safe to race again--- Link racer is here--- Oh wait, that is Brian in Pro Mod now!

What will be funny is if we are going to need a second one on our dragsters in the coming years - all four inches apart

Well its no different from the fact that we have to wear a -15 suit for TD and TS while the last I heard the prostock guys can still wear a -5. Figure the logic out on that one.

B.J.,
That's easy, there are ALOT more of us than Pro Stock. What are they going to sell, 20 suits maybe to PS compared to THOUSANDS of suits from the sportsman racers.

Is that the reason they were excluded from the muffler rule as well ?
