Can we tally up how many rules are in the rulebook for S/SS that arent getting enforced? We have all met and ran into the officials in the staging lanes, those guys are just trying to get us paird up and organized and just trying to keep the peace. At no point are they trying to look at our cars for illegal stuff. Guys like Dave Ley, who is a a walking rule book and pretty much knows what everyone is doing, has his hands tied. Hence why he's not at national events. Now, heres a scenario...its the final at any national or divisional, you know your opponent blocks because of their obnoxious 10" blinders hanging down from the roll cage, or the tape all over the windshield. Your .040 and they are .00 and they win on a holeshot. The rules clearly state that blockers are prohibited. You suck it up and accept the loss? Or do you make NHRA play their hand. Problem is, if you go to NHRA and they do nothing then what are we all doing here.
