Re: Proposal and NHRA and IHRA Responses
I believe that is an easy question to answer. Fewer classes = more heads up rounds which means more round wins for those with fast cars.

Re: Proposal and NHRA and IHRA Responses
Getting a lot of supportive emails. Please email Graham Light and Glen Gray your thoughts on this. Without the support of the racers they will not make changes.

Re: Proposal and NHRA and IHRA Responses
So there would be a direct correlation of people with faster cars in favor of fewer classes and those with slower cars opposed to fewer classes... Now, how would the classes be made fewer other than the combination of auto and stick?

Re: Proposal and NHRA and IHRA Responses
I would but I don't believe at this point my limited knowlede of class would help anyone, I'm learning as much as I can. I do appreciate your efforts though.

Re: Proposal and NHRA and IHRA Responses
No body should ever be abusive.
but you were pounding the drum of no heads up and it would be a real race. People feel strongly about the performance end of our classes. When a bracket guy comes in and starts putting forward that adjenda, he is going to ( and should get some heat )

Re: Proposal and NHRA and IHRA Responses
So does that mean anybody that has a fast car writes a check? I'd like to know who that might be? My car is not all world fast, but its respectable. I built and maintain 90% myself. I know there are many who do the same. People buy engines now a days, but they have done it for years. How much work do you do on your car?
Basically the guy who drove a car for someone that he had nothing to do with building or paying for it wanted to suggest changing the rules for fairness? Then accuses other racers of writing a check to make their car fast? What a joke, SMH. Quote:

And you're wrong. I done a lot of work to the car that I drove for someone else although I did not pay for it. I also NEVER suggested changing the class for fairness.
