?Work on your combo? - you mean write a check to an engine builder for 30-40k for a fast stocker engine that makes 500-600hp. There are alot of smart business men on this forum, at a certain point , this is a dumb proposition? But also , shut up with the work on your combo stuff. Unless you built your car and engine from the ground up - you wrote a check and congrats but that doesn?t entitle you to look down on others

?This is a performance based class? - you are correct , but in stock eliminator we?re basically allowed a valve job, so why do heads cost between 10-12k ?? It?s turned into who can hide their work the best aka spend the most money, it?s not a performance based class any longer , it?s a check book class

I understand the people that have money want to do what they want to do and you spent the money. But what?s the point if the class dwindled down ? If there was actual tech officials to regulate these classes I?d say it?s a performance based class still, but NHRA has squeezed that out.

How about we start the phrase ?work on your driving?. If you want to go fast to be #1 qualifier (to make that $200 check lmao) and to win heads up runs , that?s your right - but don?t crush the class and sport because you want all the bye runs 🤷🏻*♂️
