Guys,

I have to side with ol' Capt Jack on this one. Too many times we have seen the rules twisted by the higher-ups at nhra races. The tech guys are trying to do their jobs, and admittedly they do not have a perfect record, but 4 angle valve jobs and cross breeding parts are not hard calls to make. It is nhra's job to properly enforce it's own rules - there is no question about that.

Tear down at Indy is unique. Every Class racer on the grounds can hear a wrench hit the concrete floor in the barn or hear a guy cussing because he dropped a bolt in the grass on the tent side.

Too many people have become indoctrinated to the whims of nhra and it's the principal reason they get away with this unprofessional behavior. And that ain't whinning.! It's the damn truth!
