I think it would be much more appropriate to put them in new Camaros,Mustangs and Challengers to celebrate 50 years of American muscle cars after all they did make NHRA what it is today... just sayin.

God you'd have to think one of those legends will find this as distasteful as we do here, right?
Here's a visual for you WJ pulls into the beams seething, stages the "Toilet Odor" putting the engine against its limiter in neutral, banzai's the tranny on go, launching it's internals all over the starting line...LOL! |
Re: is it just my imagination ?
Well, look at the bright side, WJ won’t be complaining about track prep. But I do miss his top end interviews. Driving Toyotas gives new legs to his old quote about flopper pilots, “even a blind man could drive one”.
Suppose Jim Head has removed the Ray Charles caricature from his cars, a product of fans wondering “what’s up with that” and the PC police. |
Re: is it just my imagination ?
Toyota has 14 plants building automobiles, three R&D facilities, employing 46.000 in direct jobs,200.000 outsourcing parts in the U.S. I think it’s time for their entry. Lots has changed since Pearl Harbor. Toyota and Nissan have opened more plants in the U.S than GM and Ford combined.NHRA needs the new participation and money they will bring.

All true, and sad, and the reasons for them being able to come here and eat the Big 3's lunch by doing so are great topics of conversation, but not here. I'm sure the Legends are getting paid, and I doubt they much care what they are given to drive. |

None of that money will trickle down to Stock or SS anyway. Giving it to the B-O-D just lets them put on a bigger dog and pony show that pushes us further out of the big picture. |
