D4 Director

I've got to add my $0.02 cents to this. Racerfan is one of those uninformed people who
buy the worn out funny car/top fuel slick or the burned up piston as a souviner of his day
at the races, maybe even drinks a bit too much of the $8 beer they sell.

If you look at any stock eliminator car that is for sale in the $15-20K price range it is a
bargain. A scienced out car for the price of the parts? Yes Superstock costs even more
but also takes the same time and effort to be competitive.

I own a lowley bracket car, still not cheap, lots of fun and maybe someday if I can
accomplish some of my goals it will move up to GT/FA.

Race for trophies and still pay high entry prices, I don't think so....

just read the article and cannot belive what I read. It amazes me that a) he wrote it, b) NHRA published it, c) this person is in charge of a division full of sportsman racers
