Don't think Jeff has enough hands to drive a stick car. Lol

I'm gonna get a lot younger person to use that other pedal. And unlike my present DP, the V10 car did not require tht drink holder be removed, so that is a real help.

I know I may get some flack for this but I am getting a little frustrated listening to everyone complaining about S/SS. I am a fan and if you guys park them then it doesn't hurt NHRA it hurts us fans to come to see your cars run and maybe to say hello and chat about your cars. Yes the new system sucks I like to see the big numbers on the board if I didnt I would just go to Maple Grove and watch the sunday bracket runs. The new cars arent going anywhere Ford and Chrysler are spending good money and time on these cars and thats a good thing this sports needs the advertising and the money that the factories can bring. Maybe as paying members you can get something adjusted so big runs from new or old combos wont get you crushed. Remember there are more sportsmen racers than pros Just a comment from a fan who does care about the little guys.

I looked at the DP V-10 at the PRI show and would love to own one but $100,000 is out of range for what I want to spend for a play toy. I agree....Kevin would be a killler in a stick version.

Its to bad you dont have a lot of money, time and sweat invested in a AA thru E or F stocker to see how it would feel to you. The new cars are cool, the guys racing them are good guys and Ive known some for a long tme but NHRA screwed up big time on this deal !
