Rules - Page 3

The almost criminal situation in handicap racing, where one car might not have to take a shot at the tree, is way overdue for correction: Worst foul start shall be the loser.

No more freebies for the quicker car.

What class do you run?

Alex Denysenko · 01-15-2011, 11:29 PM

Contingency payments to be paid to us within 30 days just like the PRO's.

No exceptions, no excuses, no delays, no special qualifiers, no triple proof of purchase, etc.

If a *HRA sponsor posts contingency award to the sportsman for using their product they should be held accountable for pay such posting within a timely manner.

Why can't the *HRA's do this one thing for the sportsman racer?

Some contingency posters are great, many are pretty good, some are slow, and then again there are always the perennial stiffs.

This is Manley's latest stall tactic "Checks are cut, but CFO has not yet released them".

One and one only.
Fasten your seat belts,it's going to be a wild ride.

Lets start with that...seat belts. If it's SFI approved once, it's SFI & NHRA approved forever (or until an obvious problem)! I would count sun faded as a problem. I've replaced frickin' belts that had dozens of passes on them and they sat in my cool garage the remaining times.

And I've always been a proponent of "traditional" aluminum roller rockers for Stockers. That or take away any modified lifters. That means NO MODIFICATIONS. Take your pick.

How about strictly applying this rule in Stock?:

"CYLINDER HEADS
Porting, polishing, welding, epoxying and acid-porting prohibited."

Is it impossible to tell an acid-ported head from an untouched head?

I bet if we got the crew from CSI: Miami to look at them they would be able to tell the difference.

Bring back deep staging and anyone caught complaining gets 5 hp on their own car (only). In fact let us make the same money (donate the rest to a legal charity not NHRA) we made in the 70's so we can make everything in house, while we are at it no motor homes and stacker trailers unless you make coffee for the who ever is parked next to you regardless of class they run and bring back quaker state motor oil giving free cases of oil at national events..... Be back later with more, I am a little tired after all these quality suggestions.

Oh and before I come back any racer or team owner or anyone affiliated with a racing team suggesting a self serving rule gets one years as a tech offical in their division. All rules will be developed and voted on by the fans or sideline experts.

Ahhh I love the winter.

So Joe, the next time that you break into the meds locker, take the other pink pills.

Joe DeMarzo · 01-16-2011, 10:45 AM

Billy, my friend I have more coming but I took a little blue pill by accident, it go stuck in my throat and now I have a stiff neck...

Hope you are having a great winter.

Joe DeMarzo · 01-16-2011, 10:55 AM

How about anyone who red lights is out... Forget about who red lights first, who red lights worst, if both red light they are both out and the next opponent on the ladder has a bye run.. yeah thats the ticket.

AND,,, if you are suspected of cheating but don't get caught you have to be a contestent on the Jerry Springer show.

Now we are cooking baby. I need a nap. Later
