I'm not too happy with NHRA now as it is, but here again, you're paying for something that you are not getting. NHRA is supposed to police the classes, and that's apart of S/SS. If you race those catagories expect to get torn down. But here again, NHRA is ignoring their responcability to the racers and the integrety of the classes. Even though I don't quailify well, I expect to be taken apart at any given race, I haven't been tapped on the shoulder since 1979. Don't think that NHRA is doing anybody any favors by not doing tear downs, just the oppisite. You pay for a membership and you pay to race, but you don't get anything that you are paying for when the tech group fails to tear down cars. There should be at least 10% of the field at evey national event being torn down. Back in the 70's and 80's almost 1/4 of the field was taken apart even if you were apart the week before. I don't like tear down just like anyother racer, but I know that it's apart of the racing I choose, that's what the real difference between bracket racing and class racing.
NHRA has rules that out rule common sense!
