Re: Where are the lower class cars?
I would think guys that run slower cars are more on a budget, and the cost of a NHRA national event is high. I started racing again with the thought of the economy limiting entries, but also with the idea that class wins/singles could defray the cost. Unfortunately NHRA changed that.
I think if a racer can run the index or below, he should be able to go rounds in eliminator if he/she can correctly dial the car and be competitive on the tree. All you get for class now is a trophy and class points, most aren't going to run for the class points, to many races. Mike M |

When you think you're "good", then try going "fast" (fast being a relative word) with something that has no parts availability, compatibility or history and let me know how you make out. Lower classed cars are falling out of favor because money and knowledge are too easy to come by to build upper classed cars. I honestly expected better from you! |

Re: Where are the lower class cars?
Billy, Not everyone knows the thrill of making something slow go fast with work and inginuity. That's too old school for some.

Me too.I usually agree with many of Alan's posts.I think he missed it this time.Just my opinion.
Like the Hawk says "It's not what you drive,it's how you drive it" Alan,go stand in the corner for 20 minutes.. |

I never said I thought I was good, if I was, our stuff would be a lot faster. I said many people are not happy going slow. If you like slower cars, that's fine. For me, there is just not enough excitement to be had on the track with a slower car, no matter how challenging it is to make it a competitive class car. The threshold for fun in a race car, for me, is around 11.50 at 115 or better. I have no criticism for people who like slower cars. If that is what you like, by all means, have at it. It's all about what you find to be fun. I do, however, find it amusing that people want to criticize people for preferring to go faster. |
Re: Where are the lower class cars?
I race a 11 sec car and a 17 sec truck and I have the same amount of fun if not more in my truck!!!!! as long as the light is on in my lane I don't care what I'm driving!!!! BTW I've won a heck of a lot more rounds in the truck!!!
