"WHAT IF" part 4

You know Terry I avoid calling anyone a liar at all costs, so I will just let others make up their own minds on this one. So you are just out for FWD competitors own good huh? Make it easier for them to win you say? Then why did you post this in the H.A.M.B. forum? Hummmm?

"Well it sounds good for old guys like us and I started the "Pure stock" class in IHRA years ago when I worked for them for 22 years with basicly the same rules except unfortunatly its open for the newer cars also. There is so much bitching and complaining any more that Im having my doubts that I will continue with a sportsman association. If it does come to be then the "pure stock" class will be included with a name change to "Jr. Stock" and maybe limit the year to 1971 max. Right now the catagory starts at 8 lbs per HP and goes 15 lbs per HP in full lb breaks (8, 9, 10, 11, etc.. If you read the comments on the racers forum then you know what I'm talking about. The FWD (slugs) cars a joke when it comes to spectator intrest."

Thank you once again for proving my point Terry. I think I speak for all FWD competitors, Please,don't do us any favors. Insert fork now. Jim
