Easy on the Dart heads! We would see an 8 second Stocker next week if that happened! Although, that may be the only way to catch up with the Wild Thangs and Trouble Paks. Just an opiniion, so don't kill me over it.......

Nitrous Oxide is like dating a hot chick with an STD--you want to hit it, but you're afraid of the consequences.

And if NHRA doesn't do something beyond the AHFS 3.25%, the AHFS will stand for "*** & Head Finely Synchronized".
