I wish NHRA would protect our classes from that kind of behavior . I am glad that Lee sharp has committed to SS/CM and seems he has done very well in the class , I hope that he and others will recognize that just because they are fortunate enought to have the means to BUY the best patterson motors and parts in existance they dont need to come out and prove anything by going half a second faster than the rest of the cars in the class . In Vegas last year we won class with a 9.00 against craig marshall who ran 9.001 . That is exciting racing and the type of racing that makes class fun in my opinion . Seeing a guy go 5 tenths faster than the rest is a complete *** kicking and does nothing but piss people off . As far as working harder that doesnt stand a chance against an unlimited check signer in modified ....
Great post. Like I said in prior postings, NHRA has to limit the type of parts allowed in the class. This is not the place to run parts like the Aurora short deck block and similar other components. It is not the class to do R&D for Comp racers. I would like to see class limited to standard deck OEM configuration Bowtie blocks, use of 18 and 23 degree heads, Buick Dart heads, Vortec-Bowtie and the Canted valve head for the "A" class only. The SB2, 12 and 15 degree heads do not belong in the class.

What would be next...someone showing up with a Chevy R0X race block?

They should also limit the amount of removable ballast.
