Re: "Live" from JEGS Sportsnationals 2017
People who live in glass houses should not throw stones!
All the classes should be respected as fellow racers and we all need each racer to keep the sport alive. I have owned a race car and raced Stock, SST, SC, and currently race SG and I can tell you each is different but all deserve respect with different skill needed. All of the classes is what keeps us all racing and what is being posted about SC dragsters makes me ill. I know the dragsters take a long time to run and there are a lot of them but we should all respect them. They paid the same entry fee everyone else did and only get one race as compared to Stock and Super Stock getting two races where class is run but you do not hear complaints about that posted here. I know this is off topic but I feel the need to respond. Those of you that feel the need go ahead and flame me just like all the classes you do not run yourselves. Rick Cates Canyon, TX |

That was not a bad comment about super comp, but a reference to another incidence with Charley!

Re: "Live" from JEGS Sportsnationals 2017
So who won class it is not posted on DRC. I was watching the live broadcast yesterday and just as the class finals was starting I had to turn it off because our dinner guest arrived. By the time I got back to it I could not retrieve it.

Re: "Live" from JEGS Sportsnationals 2017
Well,eliminations started 3 hours late due to track weepage. The first super street car down the track came unglued at the 1000 foot mark but lived to tell about it. The track dryers are out once again. Mother Nature 1....Racers 0.....

Re: "Live" from JEGS Sportsnationals 2017
Patsy is absolutely correct on this one. Charley has a history of runnng into super comp dragsters on winding pit roads. That Rusty 2211 is one funny guy. I don't know him well but I sure like his sense of humor. He meant no malice towards the Super Comp community....

Re: "Live" from JEGS Sportsnationals 2017
Everybody's got their own opinion, but damn few of us EVER check the index during a Heads Up run .. Of course we need to on a Dial in, as we are the ones coming up with it ...But NHRA sets the index's .. I side with Charlie
