Re: Rumors from Sonoma.............
 

All I ever hear is doom and gloom and not one good suggestion for getting car counts up or fixing the obvious problems. Trying to please S/SS racers is like trying to herd cats. You guys are in fact your own worst enemy when it comes to Glendora. Every negative stereotype they have about you all is reinforced here everyday all day long.

This just about says it all. Its one reason I put the idea of starting a Stock, Super Stock association and a Class Nationals 2 with Alex that I mentioned earlier this year on hold. To many disgruntled racers on the forum.

[quote=mike carr; i was always facing huge speed differentials. I never worried about what would happen if a much faster car lost control and hit me. I figure by the time they would lock the brakes at the stripe and spin, they'd already be past me.[/quote]

Re: Rumors from Sonoma.............
 

IF the NHRA decided to run combo's and you think the transbrake is an advantage then just have them take the wire on the solinoid or allow Stockers to run one too then we could move on to throttle stops, delays, timers and ....there you have it ....we're bracket racers!

Can we double enter and run two cars then?

definately have to get rid of the first red-light rule.

Re: Rumors from Sonoma.............
 

i have said it before and i will say it again. spec heads designed by other than car companies, with one of there reps on sight to check said heads, give every class an index off lbs. per c.i., run them out the back door and may the best man win. cheap and real racing for the fans,

Re: Rumors from Sonoma.............
 

Championship points and alot of $$ at stake running 1320 i would probably choose a very High Compression engine in a very slick car..with transbrake that vary's probably less than one hundred of a second between runs..but thats me....what do i know

Ron White said it first, Larry just repeated it.

Re: Rumors from Sonoma.............
 

Yes, but the point is the same as proven by all the posts after I put it up there...

Prediction: 5 years, S/SS will be gone the way of Modified Eliminator, RIP...

Disgruntled isn't even the half of it. Blind stupidity and self interest is the real problem. There is no such thing as working together to save a way of racing that is more than just racing, it is a heritage and a philosophy about what it means to have the fastest G/Stock Automatic Boss 429 Pinto wagon on earth on a given day. That is all gone the way of pinks (what a joke) and bracket racing (even bigger joke) and it is all coming to a national event near you soon and the posts in this thread are the proof but the posters here all (except a few) “think they are saving racing”, my ***!… They are part of the problem not the solution!

I hear so many people scream that we need more “heads up” runs but as soon as they are faced with the opportunity to really do so the whining and bickering and sniveling starts about “so and so’s bla bla bla” and “it ain’t fair, bla bla bla” and “he’s got a yada yada yada”… if you don’t like the heat stay out of the fry’n pan and stay at your Saturday night track and support their bracket program where you belong! Need any proof? Look at where Top Stock is today!

All most all of this bickering and “we’re gona change the world” crap comes from a bunch of “newbie’s” and “wannabe’s” that think they world needs to do what they want because that is the way mommy raised them, they always got what they wanted and if they didn’t they cried and sniveled and then if they didn’t get what they wanted they cried and sniveled louder until mommy gave in. Most of the rest of them think that if they go buy every state of the art “trick of the week part” and spend more money than everybody else they should automatically be the fastest car out there and if they ain’t then everybody that is faster has to be cheating and the ones that ain’t just ain’t cheating enough! Baaa whaaaa… it’s not fair!! These guys are a bunch of lazy wimps that has had everything they have handed to them, they have never had to work for anything in their lives and they ain’t about to do it now especially not when they can whine and snivel about it…
