I guess u would have had to enter a nat.event to be on there.I drive a LS T/A on the street but I guess u could say I have a A/SA to,just havent built it into a stocker yet.

You can look my name up and you won't see mine either, but I help where I can a close friend who will show up, Kyle Ratcliff. He is doing his level best to compete in a competitive sport and seems to be having a blast doing it. He is pretty twisted, but also laid back and friendly.

One thing I bet he wouldn't tolerate is someone like you running his mouth they way you do. I wouldn't either, but the odds are you would run into him at the track before you would me. I would gladly shake your hand and share a beer with you if this is just internet bravado and you are just trying to get a rise.

But I would pay money to see you pull the same stunts in person with Kyle. He is exactly on the opposite side of the fence as you are with these cars. We both feel they are not stockers, but are certainly neat cars that can run in stock class within their own category.

Be sure and look him up. He will be at almost all the division 4 races, maybe Indy/Vegas/Pomona. I won't tell him you are coming. Just pick your position before you introduce yourself. I am sure I will hear back about the encounter. He will be pizzed at me I am sure! :D

You all need to grow up, stop with the bull, Chad has two cars. The corvette has been around for years and his dad drove it a long time ago. Nice piece too. The I/SA is new, but they have been running Div. points meets. If you would use your real name you mite get more respect instead of calling people out. I hate this time of the year, seems all the crazies come out of the wood work.

Bragging rights is about it unless you run one of the new cars!!!

That was the real old day's $1,000-$1,200 was the norm but we didnt have as many events then. Other than a few classes it Just a single run for the trophy now too many classes now.

yea, jerkoff, Due mostly to family issues, we stayed close to the house this year. WE ran a few combo races and tested. However of you look in 09 you will find my name and my dad's in both division 2 and 4. There are plenty of people on this forum who actually know me, i could give two ****s less what what some no name, wanna be, stroke has to say. Maybe you should actually build your LS T/A and compete, or maybe that's a little above your capabilities. Anyone can type on a keyboard.

Back in the mid 90's at IHRA we were sponsored by STANBACK headache powders on our H/R car. We started paying $25.00 and $50.00 at all points races that we were at for any stock or superstock and then Modified records that were set.. There was a stipulation that in your credits on your record that you also put STANBACK name on record sheets and that would be posted in the record section of every issue of Drag Race Magazine (then Drag Review) till a new record was set . This was good marketing for Stanback as they had their name in every issue......And we paid on the spot as soon as the car was declared legal at tear-down.Can you imagine how much it costs to advertise in those type magazines. Some records were in there a year or more.It was not much ,but it helped out on the gaskets for the tear-down. We also did a Snap Back with Stanback award as well. Again ,the good ole days..........

Mike Jeffrey told me a couple weeks ago class wins with his V/SA car got him $500 each. I am guessing that is with contingencies,

Wow, no one has a picture of him, so he doesn't race.

Try searching www.dragracecentral.com, that shows you qualifying and results, not just pictures. Although, from the tone and content of your posts, it may be that you cannot deal with much more than pictures, actual reading and comprehension may be more than just a little beyond your grasp.

Let me save you some trouble. I am on www.autoimagery.com, and www.dragracecentral.com. Yeah, the pictures are from 2008. The boss sold that car and we have been concentrating on just one car that he drives.
