A Word Of Gratitude To Real Racers

Rusty Davenport · 11-08-2017, 03:57 PM

After reading most of the post which come from complainers and bashers of NHRA, I felt so depressed I wanted to seriously thank those who really make class racing possible----THOSE WHO CONTINUE TO PAY THE WHATEVER FEES AND ENDURE WHATEVER NHRA SANCTIONS AND KEEP ON RACING FROM WEEK TO WEEK, THESE PEOPLE KEEP US A PLACE TO RACE AS MUCH AS ANYTHING------FACE IT WE ARE STILL RACING BECAUSE FOR THE MOST PART CLASS RACERS ARE PAYING THEIR OWN WAY.
Larry Hill said it a while back, class racing is not for everybody, I am amazed at those who just cannot face it. What can they enjoy at taking every shot they can at whatever they can negative.
PAY AND PLAY PLEASE, try enjoying it and all the diversity. Thanks to ALL WHO KEEP GOING, MY WEEK TO WEEK HEROES YOU NEVER HEAR A COMPLAINT FROM. Time for another Corona, thanks again.

Well said Rusty, If I'm not having fun I find something else to do. We're new to stock racing and I have had some haters because I haven't been doing it for 30 years, and I've had some guys step up and really try to help me... thank you to them. We'll try it for a couple years and if it's no fun we're going to the Southeast Gassers.

I got one complaint, I can't make as many races as I want to!
