Default Re: Elite/KB Pro Stock war...Ladder game

Sounds like we’re all of a similar mindset in that positioning on the ladder for all sorts of reasons is just part of the sport and EE would probably admit that as well but since it was Anderson it made for a good manufactured story line to hype. There are plenty of those out there as NHRA struggles to put folks in the stands. Isn’t it amazing how those being hyped all stop at the same place in the shutdown area and they rush to get the cameras there for the sucker punch or verbal exchange. Afraid the whole Pro show is pretty much a circus/WWF promotion with the motorcycles being the most genuine but have to hand it to the KB team, when they run their teammates it’s a straight up deal. The other big teams are all suspect in my book. The KB bunch are racers in the fullest sense of the word, in the true tradition of Garlits, Shirley, Glidden, it’s actually a pretty long list but their peers in the active ranks are thinning.
