To me, it just looks like those racers are showing an expression of our sacred First Amendment rights of Free Speech. Just my opinion.

Maybe I missed something but why were there so few of the Ford factory showdown cars at Indy?

You are correct! It does not have anything to do with the cars, it has a lot to do with our sport and n hobby!

It is a difficult thing to overlook the political aspect of our sport.

One party is strongly pushing a "Green Deal"...that it could not only kill our sport, but also prevent us the enjoyment of working, modifying and building our cars.

Think about it...

How many tracks have closed and how many local governments are trying to close dragstrips?

How about the legal issues that Bandimere is dealing with because of the local government?

How about the threat from the past administration EPA to our sport, that SEMA had to fight for and collect signatures? The EPA legislation that threatened our sport was written by the previous administration. If they had won the election, the EPA rules would have passed and hurt our hobby.

So in a nutshell...how many of you would enjoy driving and drag racing electric cars?
