I hadnt heard a word about it until jeff K. told me at indy it was a done deal. I said whatever. Just let me know what the rules are, and I will figure out how to deal with them.

I figured out how to work with what I had, and didnt persue it anymore. Like I said I dont care either way, just tell me what the rules are so I can plan my next move.

Make up your mind, Charlie. One minute you're saying, "I don't care, just tell me what the rules are", and the next you're asking NHRA to change rules to solve your problems.

How about I plan the next move for you, Its really simple. Stick to the rule book. Its guys like you that are killing the originality of the class.
