Re: New Technical Inspection Addendum
What specifically has piqued the interest of the N.H.R.A. Tech Dept. and at what class level and oh by the way should they not be appreciated for this.
What is the core issue, inquiring minds need to know. I believe it's SC, SG, SST, SS and STK. What they are doing in Comp is too hard for me to understand. |

Re: New Technical Inspection Addendum
I thought that honesty and integrity was an important part of being a great racer. Those virtues were important to me and my friends when we raced. I guess things have changed for a few.
Pretty darn sure that most racers are very proud of their honest racing qualities.

Re: New Technical Inspection Addendum
Assuming NHRA has the will to enforce the rule, and the ability to employ the due diligence - the fall out and subsequent fix seems pretty easy. If you are caught cheating at that level of sophistication to have artificially replicated ETs you get a lifetime ban from NHRA events. Strong deterrent and no repeat offenders. When honor isn’t enough of a reward, a giant hammer can be substituted. Flame away....

Re: New Technical Inspection Addendum
Bear with me on this but one of my favorite books is John Steinbeck’s “East of Eden”. Along with revealing much about human nature as well as the concept of free will, it really explores how people are so much alike but can be wired so differently such that their value systems are unfathomable to most of us. In this context it is inconceivable to me that racers would cheat in such a manner but I’m realistic enough to know it happens. Hopefully NHRA will do due diligence on this but for those who get away with it they should know karma is a bitch. Meanwhile they can go on living their miserable lives where there are no boundaries or values. Off my soapbox...
