Like my buddy said about the pro racers wanting this big $$ class,, Be carefull what you ask for, you might just get it !!!!!! It took some years but now we are here were they cant run in what they made,,,,

In My Opinion, i hope WJ and KJ get a sponsor but it probally wont happen

Boy are you right, they have turned pro stock into a mega bucks deal with electronic shocks and all, they deserve what they get. All three of those pro classes are out of control and now the grim reaper is at their door.

Thumbs up Re: WJ & Kurt Sitting Out for 2009 ???

Hopefully Delco will stay with KJ.......Rumor I have heard is that the Professor may race a "Brown Truck"

If all the pro category racers start suffering from the same fate of cutbacks and lack of funding will the NHRA put its racing on hold? I mean who will be left to pull in the fans?

Maybe NHRA will realise the sportman shows are pretty good and promote them a little bit more. Several years ago the National Dragster did a servey on the most popular eliminator 1st was Funnt Car 2nd was Super Stock. Never heard much about it after that.
