If I keep racing I'll just run 6 tenths or so under and cry and moan to get defactored.
I have fought the thought for years that Stock/Superstock was way above bracket racing.
I now have changed my mind.
At the PRI show I had nothing to do, no reason to try to learn anything that might help me go faster. And there should be no reason for anyone to strive for performance Just let the Automatic Help For Slugs do the work for you
And I doubt it will do anything to fix the problem. The new cars will never run all out when they can get whacked 2 or 3 classes at once. If a person is bleeding from a cut, you can stop the bleeding by stopping the heart from beating.

Art, i wouldn't be so quick to blame "the cry babies" as you call it. Most of those who have complained about the new cars said the same thing, put them in their own class so they can sort themselves out like the EFI cars. I don't recall anyone saying that the AHFS needed to be butchered the way they did it. I think its awful. NHRA does not listen to its customers, and they are lazy. They took the easy way out, didn't fix the root of the problem, and created another set of problems
