Re: Elite/KB Pro Stock war...Ladder game
No-body seems to be concerned about Force qualifying opposite Hight first round?
Does Force go red, kill the tires or blow up?

Re: Elite/KB Pro Stock war...Ladder game
Elite would be doing the same thing if reversed. I'm SURE Richard and his brother did this in Comp. They all have seemed to inherit her pouty, unsportsman-like attitude (when they don't win). And playing the "gender card" is silly to me, I thought we were "equal". Not a great fan of current PS with the Mopars gone but, this is goood!!

Re: Elite/KB Pro Stock war...Ladder game
Back in the day (60's - 70's) racers used to call each other out. This is just the 2019 version of the same. I think it's great.

Jason had to gain qualifying points to stay within reach of her. He couldn’t be 15 qualifier to do it himself.

Re: Elite/KB Pro Stock war...Ladder game
Force can mathematically win the championship, so don’t see any diving. Neither car had good qualifying runs.

Re: Elite/KB Pro Stock war...Ladder game
Look at the big picture here. Greg and Erica are BOTH creating drama for a class waning in the fans and NHRA's eyes. Seems to be working as sounds like will be watching with most everyone else talking about it.
Greg is a very smart individual who not only devoted his life to the class I grew up loving, but he is also one of the last of the dying breed of Grumpy/ WJ/ Glidden style drivers. Greg took the Reher Morrison team style to a higher level and certainly deserves respect and admiration for his accomplishments. I myself personally would like to see him surpass WJ with overall wins. One of the last legends of Pro Stock. And Erica... shes certainly media savvy and can not only drive her ***** off, but handle pressure situations like a true champion. Personally most of my attention will be focused on Stock and SS semi's and finals. Would love to see Kyle double up and clinch the championship in SS, that is the real drama in my Sunday. Congrats to all racers that spent there hard earned $ entertaining all of us this season. Been a hell of a show right to the end. Much appreciated! |

Re: Elite/KB Pro Stock war...Ladder game
I wonder if we’ll see a burn down on the tree ??
Or will Greg light up both bulbs at once ?? Erica likes to stage last so we’ll see how it plays out.

Re: Elite/KB Pro Stock war...Ladder game
Not sure where a female is hindered at all in drag racing even if most competitors are male. From an engineering standpoint, doesn't the smaller, lighter person actually have an advantage by being able to move weight around the vehicle compared to a bigger, heavier driver?
