Re: New shifter rule poll
It is very hard to slow down constant refining of many things, just about
impossible with the minds that racers have. Example- I used to race Stock and then I moved "Up" to Super Stock, and then completely lost my mind and went into Comp Eliminator. As this was happening, my two young sons were starting to grow up, and their sports activities, school activities, friends, etc etc. Their Mother didn't see racing fitting into this program, so I retired, sold everything, and missed racing dearly. Boys graduate College, move out, chase girls, forget Dad's phone number unless money required. What a wonderful time to get back in to racing. I'm just going to get a little Stocker, if it runs 40-50 under, I'll be happy. I lied. Next thing I'm getting heads done, which you have to stand in line for, special rings with gas ports, apparently a stock crank isn't good enough any more, and on it goes. It turns out all this stuff costs more than when I ran Comp. So much for my little budget Stocker. Racing has gotten ridiculously expensive, and will continue to do so. J.R. |

Re: New shifter rule poll
So, let?s say I have a 69 Camaro running in A/SA with a Turbo 200 transmission and my opponent is running a 99 Camaro in A/SA with a Turbo 200. Heads up race, but he/she has the TA auto shift in their car. Why should they have a precise shifting advantage over me? Just because they have the newer car? About time NHRA is making things equal for everyone. Dyno
