Just a question for Bruce, Travis, Danny or any NHRA TECH gu

Charlie, Your original question asked: "Just a question for Bruce, Travis, Danny or any NHRA TECH guys." You requested that any one of those NHRA tech gurus address the issues you brought forth.

Excellent questions, and questions that fairly BEG for an answer!

No one from NHRA has even hinted at a response of any kind. Maybe they didn't see it???

Hmmmm....

When I was involving myself in an obsessive, over-wrought, long-winded rant on this BB, I was chastised by several members demanding that I "pipe down!!!"
Their reasoning was that NHRA monitors this board closely, and what I was saying, while it may have been true, wasn't an appropriate change suggestion, because I wasn't running a "class" car, at the time.

But, the bottom line was, they were afraid that NHRA might take the time to look at my suggestion, (something that some of the Class Racer members didn't want to happen...) because NHRA actually DOES read this board.

Forget my rant; that's unimportant. What IS important, is that NHRA chooses to ignore this thread instead of answering Charlie's question, ostensibly hiding behind a tacit "oh... we never saw that!" excuse.

We know better.

Shame on NHRA for ignoring these questions that Charlie asked! They need answers.... NOW!

Right or wrong, NHRA is like any other large company. Unless your position within the company is to cuss and discuss policies and procedures, you are not to take part in any discussion on any social media outlet that expresses their "official position" on a topic.

You might try the NHRA Technical Departments General Q&A email - tech@nhra.com

Where is their responsibility to their members/customers???

Is it beyond the capability of that whole staff of NHRA employees to respond to legitimate questions like that, in an open forum, that most people seem to think that they (NHRA) monitor, anyway?

Sounds like a cop-out to me.

But, when did they ever even attempt to do anything the "right" way???

Rant mode: "off."
