So let me get this right, your saying that the throttle stops make super class racing better ????????? all it did was make it easier for the ones with money to build bigger motors so they only had to think about was the finish line, less thinking less skill in my book!!! Do I take the line or dump him, 50/50 shot. It made some of us build bigger motors to race with these guys so we would be competitive. It is also not safe I have seen idiots with big motors chase down a guy, hammer the brakes and take out both cars..
THERE'S THE SAFETY SIDE

if we didn't have them, we wouldn't need $20.000 motors to be the fastest guy out there.. 565 ci to run 10.90 is stupid i have a 511 ci that's all i can afford at 10.90 140 is fast enough 9.90 155 also...
and all of the computer stuff that is out there that a racer needs now $$$$$$$$$
THERE'S THE COST SIDE

I'm not saying to put a mph on us, but it is getting out of hand we are loosing racers and fans, NO FANS NO MONEY..NO RACERS NO MONEY........

the average spectator dose not have a clue about class racing and you cant get the announcer to explain it to them, they don't care and don't have the time at a race, hell their even walking away during pro stock, bring on jr. dragster .......... sport compact, pro stock truck. all have gone by the wayside.. NHRA might be trying but i dont know what.. it is the times of today sorry..
THERE'S THE SPECTATOR SIDE

And ill say it out loud, there would be no (CHEATING) from someone you never herd of, or the ones that there names come up all the time, do not tell me that some of these so called gentlemen racers don't do it, it just gets so old when one of these men say its getting harder to win one of these things.. EVERY TIME THEY WIN ONE !!!! yes i have hit a 10.900 .000 lite and every one said were did that come from, and all you can say is the racing gods so it can happen. but round after round, i don't think so. you hear the car go up and down in rpm, you just look at the racer next to you and shake your head and say did i just hear and see that and walk a way in disgust..
THERE'S THE FUN FACT

there is a lot of manufactures out there that help us out. we need to let them know about these things don't you think... or are you running a throttle stop and cant think for your self????
