Jerry,I saw one a while back and heard of another second hand.
I figured this thread would go to ***** (not your post Jerry),and it didn't take long.NHRA is going to get away with letting our eliminators go to crap due to lack of pressure on them to correct a lot of problems,whether caused by us or them.
I think I'll pull the plug on it.
NHRA does teardown cars when a car runs fast enough to set a record.The incedent I saw concerned a car going stupid fast,then
coming back the next run without the B on the window.That's not NHRAs fault.That's a case of the racers making a mockery of the
system.It was his option to do that,but it doesn't mean it's right.The other incedint was the alledged radiator emptying a while back.
I hope that clears up my statement,which I have deleted from my original post.
