Default Re: heads- up runs

In division 3 if you have an A through G stock automatic car you are going to have heads up runs occasionally. In 2007 the year I was fortunate enough to win the division I had 6 or 7 during the year. Without those heads up runs no way I would have won.

I think the point of this questionaire is "look NHRA, there are hardly ever any heads-up runs so let's just drop heads-up runs from the program. Then I can be successful at Class Racing with my brackets racing prowess and not ever have to worry about loosing a round because I don't have the talent, money or time to building a successful class car."

If you aren't hitting heads up runs in the eliminator in D1 or D3, it's because you aren't winning any rounds! If you don't count class, that's because you aren't a real S/SS racer. Flame on............
That is simply a state of mind. My state of mind is class is not important, there are other that suffer from the same state of mind.

Default Re: heads- up runs

We have had a few heads up races over the past couple of years, (7 or 8 ) and the only one we lost was to a car that was later found to be illegal.

So I would generally say that we like heads up runs.

And our engine was sealed when we got the A/SA record, so it will stay sealed into the next season
