Sure. First Amendment rights, freedom of speech, whatever you want to call it.

You jokers, and you in particular, think your opinions count. I suggest getting a class car and showing the rest of us how smart you are. You won’t or can’t, one of the two.

But keep pounding on that keyboard like it matters.

President of Team Stupid acting up again?

I saw nothing disrespectful with Kieth?s remarks. He?s just reiterating what the release was about. And although Ed is unbelievably abrasive, he also is right. Gentlemen, it is stated in black and white, so much so that NHRA felt the need to remind us all of the rule. No chillers outside your pits. This has nothing to do with our respected categories, it?s literally in the rule book. I don?t see what any of this has to do with Keith being a .90 racer.

It?s clear that many class racers here are upset about the rule enforcement as you see it as a disadvantage for your program, and that?s a fully legitimate reason to be upset. It feels like to me some of you are projecting this anger onto onlookers instead of the sanctioning body enforcing rules you don?t love.

(This is coming from a certified class racer who can be found at the very bottom of the D2 points list)

If stock racers followed the rule book exactly as written in black and white most of us would be 2-4 tenths slower. We learn pretty quickly the question is what can I get away with?

2-4 tenths is a conservative estimate.

And maybe entice some new racers into the classes. Silly me, I thought stock actually meant stock. Lets see, aftermarket lightened block, aftermarket stroked crank, aftermarket rods, pistons with radial gas ported rings, oversize cam core, moved lifter bores, Jesel rockers, aluminum heads, replacement carburetor etc etc etc. Nothing really stock here

You need to go to opens to set records and worry more about lowering the class average to not get hp. And aside from the occasional heads up, its just a shoe polish bracket race. Seems the real winners here are the engine builders

A quick question though, when is breaking the rules not cheating. Integrity is a weird premise sometimes. If I hide my delay box and dont get caught, am I a hero or zero. When is cheating not cheating? asking so I know what to tell my wife

When was the last time a Pro Ball player admitted they trapped/dropped a ball? Missed a tag? etc. Coach admitted the ref/ump missed a call that should have been in the opposing teams favor? Politicians? You have a monumental question there!

Stock and Super Stock really is not just a bracket race Bracket cars only have safety rules,Stock and Super Stock have a huge amount of firm rules they have to ahere to,engine specs chassis rules etc
