You can learn a lot from talking. You can find out if a person knows anything about the subject he's talking about.
Ya don't have to be a genius to figure that out.
Let alone a no-name newbie.

You forgot to mention that the man uses his own name..for the sake of credibility ;-)

How can the system ever work when you are allowed to drag the system back in time?

No name defense when you're spinning fluff doesn't work.

Why don't you enlighten me and let me know what "fluff" I'm spinning.

I try not to get into opinions. I got tired of reading some of the posts here and wanted to offer legitimate info to counter some of the obvious agenda based posts. None of what I offer has an mpact on you because you are not a racer. Gumple is an old German name. Good luck on the Internet this year.

Some people have issues with every run - not enough power - and those are the ones NHRA tries to identify.

I think that there is some truth to that. But, how do you regulate the slower car that still runs old technology? The Cutlass that Chip drives is a great example. So far, it has responded very well to minor upgrades and attention.

Once a racer always a racer. Who are you, Don Garlits? That's a German name too.
