Gosh Chad - couldn't you tell I was just giving you a hard time?

I thought it was funny that you responded the way you did.

Thanks for the explination though.

Maybe I should be more careful - get it

:-) peace

I'll be the first to say the rules aren't exactly what you would call "Fair" for Stock and Super Stock when it comes to the new style cars.....but come on guys, it's still a bracket race the last time I checked. Sure there might be an occasional heads up encounter...but if you have an A,B,or C car why not just put some weight in it and move down a few classes? Other than the few national events that have class run offs, and qualifying for the US Nationals, it really doesn't matter?!?!?!

I just love it when tempers flair and then folks recall they are more alike and love the same things (like our class racing!)...all of a sudden Kumbaya breaks out...

Far as I'm concerned all you guys are good racers..except LoneWolf because I don't know who in the heck he is! Sorry, just had to get that in there...


Kumbayah my Lord, kumbayah

Jason, you can only move up or down one class from your natural class, and then only if you can do it with the legal amount of ballast.

There are enough combinations for the new cars for them to be in every class between AA and D, and then some.

We'd have to build another engine and change combinations in order to move very far.

Oh - and they probably do not count here because it was a PRO class - worst of all it was AHRA

Now that is probably before most of you were born

Before most of the current fast iron was built - and that is saying something

LOL

What makes you think it is humor?
I think a few sessions with the "Gunny" as your shrink will mellow you out.

If you are the same Ron Durham when I read about your racing along with the Hiner & Miller team in one of AHRA's heads up GT classes I remember your AHRA days with a 1969 Z-28 and trying to be a Pro while living off of credit cards.....LOL. If your a different guy then I dont remember. Im old.....LOL.
