I know Stephen and Horace, and they are great racers; but their record will be retired in November if it is not reset before then. NHRA retires a record and establishes a minimum 2 years after a record is set, Stephen set the SS/E record in November 2009. Also, the only Sportsman cars that can set National records at National events are TAD and TAFC.

See ,now what has happened is the stockers are getting their wish and now the superstockers will start getting punished by these new cars....
All this would not be happening if they were just put in a class of their own as i have said

As far as I know they do Kelly. A few years back Ralph Conte set the E/SA record there but the engine broke on the backup.

Will the 08 CJ Have Hp reduced in the last half of 2012 because the AHFS recieved a request to let the car "fit" stock again? Remember Charlie Bob's letter asking for a reduction before the car ever made a run.

Record runs at the Dutch are Thursday and Friday and the corrected altitude is usually well below 1000'; very conducive to fast times.

Fezzell just went 9:20 at 150 spinning the tires. Unbelievable wheelstands this morning. Can't wait for pics and videos....but to the point of thread, SS/E is now CJ territory. Danny was right now many of the SS racers will feel the pain...

Nice run.....lets hope he runs faster before the weekend is over. I wish him good luck. Just shows how stupid NHRA is in allowing this crap to go on and how much smoke the racers of these new under rated combos have been blowing up everyones azz for the last few years. Just wait until he sets the car up with a nice suspension, larger tires and some engine modifications and see how fast he goes. Im loving it.
