To answer your first part, in time, this may affect a lot more people than it already does in the not-too-distant future. Currently, the new cars are mostly in AA, A, B and C Stock only (with one car, Jeff Tueton, that can run F-G-H). So, as of now, only cars in those classes are affected. A few weeks ago, a post was made that Ford introduced a new, smaller (302?) motor that will run in the lower classes (J and K, I believe). And if more, new cars are built, it could soon infiltrate many classes of Stock Eliminator. Just because few racers so far have been beaten in a heads-up run, doesn't mean the victim list won't grow substantially in the near future.

As for your second comment, when Bobby D ran the first 9 second run (9.99 at Mission in May 2001), there were several other cars that weekend (Robert Pond, Joe Alluise and Don Little), all in 'A' classed cars, who were in the 10.0's. It wasn't as though Bobby had them all covered by a ton. Had Bobby run his 9.99, and everyone else been in the 10.40's and slower, then yes, I imagine there would have been complaining then, as well, just like we have now.

seems like some people are just jealous and havent had anything to complain about in a few years..

Having a name and class/# appear on your posts (you can edit your profile in 30 seconds to accomplish) may not win people to your position but at least others know who they are "listening" to. Bandit posters don't get much consideration.

Touche Mr. Matyas. I will consider that for the future. But they dont have to take me seriously because half the time i dont take the people who just use this site to bash nhra and fellow racers seriously anyway.

but why is that though? whats to say i give u my name and u have no idea who i am anyway? just because you know my name and car number doesnt mean you'll understand my thoughts.
