Houston Sportsman cancelled

RJ Sledge · 04-28-2013, 03:20 PM

Dick Lux just called me and reported that "all remaining Sportsman Classes have been cancelled".

Also told me that no rigs can be removed from pits untill after final round of Pros.

Have a nice day

PS Heard that Stan Holt was grossy underwhelmed with NHRA descision!!

We were also told that it was as if we were never there. Apparently I didnt "actually" win first round. And I didnt "actually" spend over a thousand dollars to race.........Ill just call my bank and tell them that didnt "actually" happen.

I agree...total mistreatment yet again by NHRA to the sportsman racers. We can all bitch, we have that right. Until we all do something together to take a stand on how we are treated, it will continue.

Is this unprecedented..?

Another Reason when I could ..I didn't.

Do. This. Anymore.

My feeling of disgust ..is prob shared with many weekend warriors.

4.05 Diesel
Tolls. For 5th wheel trailers.
$$ Food .Lodging. Loss of work days.
Pissed off spouses.
Missed baseball and soccer games.Your kids understand. :{
Hail.Rain.

Go the fk home..nothing to see here.

Being disrespected by Pinheads that run NHRA,>Priceless.

Just today I was daydreaming in Church about buying /building a 327/275 *67 Nova class racer. I got a line on a Station wagon that runs 4 under for a decent $.
2 dr is E or F auto ?

I love the way it fits..but the hell with it.

Wouldn't want anybody to put in a long day to get everybody run off.
Heck, just send them all home.

I hope everybody can get their rigs out without tearing anything up.

RJ Sledge · 04-28-2013, 07:20 PM

Just talked to Ronnie Marlow and he said almost everybody had to pulled out with wreckers. Sure am glad that race never took place, just a figment of our imagination I guess!!

Wonder what happens to the Class Trophies they handed out???? Maybe have to send them back!! That would really be the rare trophy that was won at a non-existant event.......Ebay here they come.

that was the biggest mud hole ever.you would think that the angel bros that are in the paving buss.would lay some something back in the pits. even the alky guys were under water sad verry sad.it only storm's like every houston nat's.they should pit us at the ovel track.oh but that would make to much sense! they told me not to leave but i did any way. oh they might kick me out well we wern't there anyway right.

What does any one think about trigger runs and the AHFS data?

Do those go away as well or will those stick? I hope so...

I am sure some of you know why I am asking - maybe Joseph can tell us
