Re: Fine them and then make it legal. Wowwser
Nope, telling it like it is, the TRUTH and the FACTS!
What those guys did in no way effected 99.99% of those posting here and when those guys stage their car again, 99.9% of those posting here will not be in the other lane EVER! Last edited by 1320racer; 09-10-2024 at 10:59 AM. |

Re: Fine them and then make it legal. Wowwser
Correct but unlike most of the comments here, I applauded those guys, they played the gray area of the rule book and will continue to do so!

You willingness to cheat to win displays a total lack of integrity and says much about your character as a man.

Re: Fine them and then make it legal. Wowwser
why?
The NHRA fined them as they saw fit, docked them points and changed the pulley size. Racing goes on!! But 1. It doesn't effect you. 2. you don't race that class. 3. you have no say in how the NHRA conducts business. There are no victims here only willing participants. That said, I've learned long ago that we are here for a good time, not a long time and I'm not going to waste my time, my life trying to change things I think are wrong, especially if it doesn't effect me directly!

Nhra has gotten soft as they explained that there not looking to throw out people Here?s the problem Ed Rule is rules they should be followed The old standard was you got some time off for blatant illegal offenses 6 months to one year Nhra is not policing at that standard anymore So is the same standard for us common folks ? Who pay professional engine builders to make sure we are good The factory on x and shootout classes are sportsman classes I feel bad for anyone who lost to these cars that were caught Carry on

Re: Fine them and then make it legal. Wowwser
James, while I agree with your comments about the NHRA, we'll agree to disagree that this particular rules infraction in this class and NHRA's response to it, effects you.
That said, I don't feel bad for anyone that lost to these guys/cars, as I stated, there are no victims here only willing participants. Do you think the next time they are in the opposite lane anyone of their competitors is going to refuse to run them? The answer is not one! Last edited by 1320racer; 09-10-2024 at 02:22 PM. |

Re: Fine them and then make it legal. Wowwser
I'm more confused, did they make larger pulleys or just claim the wrong engine?
Both are wrong and is not a gray area but cheating. One can be "oops used wrong note" the other is blatant in your face cheating to win and deserves a much harsher penalty.
