?? I guess you are refering to a bad decission? Red, too fast, too slow, excessive braking. In any case, you own it.

Why don't you guys start a new thread under "2012 and beyond rule proposals"
It's so typical that these somewhat informative threads get taken over buy those that can't stay focused. Hmmm...wonder what that says about their racing prowess..?

There again I would think the "first or worst" rule would apply. The first car to go out of bounds is out? Jim

Re: 2011 Stock/Super Stock Rule Changes
 

one rule i seen done at the Sports Nats and i hope it starts getting used was the "Who run's first in SS or Stock" rule as they made the last 4 qualifiers and who ever they was paired up with in Rd 1 run first. I will make a point to send a e-mail to all division directors and tell them this is a good deal and might speed things up on getting cars going after they are paired up and nobody wants to move to be the first couple of pairs.
32 car field:
16 vs 32
15 vs 31
14 vs 30
13 vs 29
This would be first 4 pairs

Joe:
You could call it the "bottom feeders" or "sand baggers" rule.

We all know who they are.

Hi my name is Shelby Hurley and I had previously wrote a letter to NHRA concerning a stocker rules change requesting the year limit cutoff to be pushed back to 1955 and posted it on classracer to discuss views on the situation. And I would like to thank everyone that supported the stockers rule change, those that wrote into NHRA, and NHRA itself for the change in the upcoming race season.
We were told by so many people that this would "Never" happen, however, my dad and I are both very excited that our 1955 Chevy Belair stocker can now run both IHRA and NHRA.

Thanks Again!
Shelby Hurley

Looks good to me Joe.

Re: 2011 Stock/Super Stock Rule Changes
 

It happened to me in Qualifying. I was the slower car. IHRA tossed both runs, mine and his. Lucky for me it was my first qualifying pass and there were 2 more. I wonder if it has ever happened in eleminations to anyone?

Shelby,
I saw you and your dad's car at the Richmond Dragway race in June. Congtatulations on your effort to get the old cars back in the guide. Your car is very nicely done and is sure to turn heads wherever you go with it.

Joe,

I liked what they did at the sports nats with the 1st 4 pairs.....now if they would follow Division 4 and stagger the tree in qualifying.....
