No Blinders

[Billy Nees]

When are we going to do something about the "data loggers can't be hooked to the ignition box" rule? Or how about the "no driveshaft sensors" rule?

Hey Billy, Here’s a good place to start….remove the 327 intake manifolds from the 283’s ……..

I'm OK with that too! But that's not a "written rule" problem, that's a Tech Dept. problem.
Maybe we could get stuff like this fixed if we could get the NHRA Techs to "take off their blinders".

Bubski is like WTF !! This Crazy Train has gone off the rails again !! 459 intakes and big journal cams n other enhancements and begging for HP reductions have nothing to do with this nonsensical thread !! What ever happened to PERFORMANCE based classes ?? Now we need blinders , as many calipers as you could possibly mount on the rear brakes of your "STOCKER" more stopping power than a dump truck , Super Mega 1000000 n the like adjustable trans brake buttons on your SS car , Coors light 30 pack blinders on your windshield and helmet !! multiple step rpm limits and on track data acquisition !! to name a few !! Remember this is PERFORMANCED based not Bracket 1 based !! Bubski believes all this nonsense can be put away for good by only allowing Hi side rev limiters , no more trans brakes , no more blinders ,no more 4 caliper rear brakes , no more data acquisition , no more fancy digital ignition systems !! Just what it takes to make the car run !! REMEMBER as you talk down to the bracket guy that STOCK, SUPERSTOCK is more than a bracket race !! And your begging for all the bracket racing luxuries !! Back to the 85b !! CBN fitted now !! CHEERS !!

Are you kidding me? This is the reason for banning blinders? And hood scoop cars that drive around haven’t just about ran over or crashed into a few things because they can’t see a thing? Wow.

so thats the real reason, maybe they should be more concerned about all the kids driving carts, scooters and bikes around, then take something away from the racers....

What pit accident or accidents were so bad that blinders are now not allowed ?
