(Who's name escapes me) He passed and was certified to race. Just to set the record straight.

Was he the ONLY ONE ?

I can only speak for the team I’m a part of. Not sure about anyone else

NHRA actually did a really good job at the Gators. Pat came around every Qual as well as round 1 and round 2, They took racepack info, checked pulley size as well as some other creative things that i was happy to see him look at. We thanked him for being on top of us and i think they genuinely want to keep us in line.

why not just a spec sealed blower and everyone on same pulleys and let the rest of the cards fall where they may. Think Nascar tries to make everyone run the same and that hasn't seem to work for them.

I agree,instead of using the Dodges as the center of the pendulum and making adjustments from there..

Like “a part” flew out of your oil pan?

Thanks for the correction. Have to keep the grammar straight.

Lose ..not " loose" ;-)

The “spec blower” issue needs to die. Nothing else about those three combinations is the same so why do some of you actually believe that’s going to help anything?

This will never be "fair" to all involved no matter how smart they are or how much money they have . Look at the pro classes . The nitro cars have pretty much the same engine platform as everyone else in their class,and at any given time one of the less than mega dollar teams can step up and outrun the big guys !! Pro Stock and the defunct Pro Stock Truck had an engine platform from each of the manufacturers . The GM engines dominated those classes and I'm not so sure it was a lack of trying on the other racers part .
