Ralph, you should try it sometime! Maybe your opinion would change.

I did for many years even with the 10.5 tire rule in NHRA Super Modified!

I served my time in C/SM too. Ancient history. What have you done lately..... other than criticize people who are actually racing today?

cobra jet had one of its best 60 foot ever and went 1.36 under

You are correct it’s my responsibility to get down the track, I just was not smart enough to figure how I loaded my car wrong leaving Indy. It was not great but it did win class.
I made all the adjustments to make it work on a marginal track. When that didn’t work I went home. My suspicion is that the track has uses something other than PJ1.
Put 300 pounds in your driver’s seat and try it. It’s just like Monday morning quarterbacking only different

We are home now! Good luck to all this week at the points race. First thing I will be doing is checking the car to see if anything is out of adjustment and will scale pre-Indy.
