Dave, I understand your point and it is well taken. But I must disagree. Unlike Obama, there should now be some rhyme or reason to do anything. There are virtually no inspections other than National Records or protests. If the car has little or no effect on the class or eliminations, then there is no point. And as pointed out by booster, anytime something like that occurs (1.20 under), there should be an inspection. I fully understand the new parts, new total car, new motor (like the new 426) where 1 passed and 1 failed, or if someone is playing games out there inspections are the aforementioned 'rhyme or reason' to tear someone down. I don't mean this as a fault of NHRA or anyone involved, but it is 2013 and even I have to change (according to my wife anyway). I also understand there must be regulation because it would be "Racers Gone Wild" if there wasn't. Must be some middle ground here somewhere. I missed a whole half day of drinking beer and visiting because of that. Whole Half Day. "English Gone Wild'.
