Free Speech you know.

If NHRA continues the “Combo” run-off, I think it should be off a dial-in not off the indexes. See the Combo Race at Indy, where in the automatic class a truck ran at 1.55 under the index and in the stick class a J/S was a second under. Other cars had no chance to run against them unless they would break or red light. (I know that’s the case in any match-up but Really!)

Find me in Columbus or I can find you to sign my petition in an attempt to be heard to stop the way NHRA is insisting on doing this “COMBO” RACE.
I'd like to hear your opinion as to why stick & auto racers should not run one another in the same class? "Don't like it" isn't reason enough in my opinion. Make your case!
