Didn't really wanna get dragged into this whole mess, I wish this thread would just go away. But here it goes, 1st off to win 2 IHRA world championships i had to run (and win) MANY 1/8 mile races, personally i don't like it. had to be done. Do i think it would help? nope, still have to clear the track and some people think they are john force and have to take long burn outs, rev the car to clear it out? (whatever that means) Then take forever to even pre stage. None of this helps get more car counts for ANY category at nationals,
I play by the rules, i enter as early as i possibly can and sometimes don't get in. Yep it sucks. but hey guys it really bites for super street, we are restricted to 1 national event each division, i live in Delaware and can only race at Atlanta, (last year was moved to the Gators in Florida, that left me out). Or Epping in New Hampshire. or maybe Chicago. So i say yes it does suck that many of you cannot enter a national in stock. too many running that category, i understand, but to take away anything from any other class is just wrong. Remember when they used to rotate (leave out) 1 category in each event ? Now that sucked! but to up the # of entrees allowed that would be a solution that i don't think anyone wants to have happen again. i don't know what a good solution would be, but for me i am going to race all the division, .90 series, and national events i can, while i still can, and enjoy doing it!
