Jeff: Charlie Bob is chained to the cooler and lounge chair, next to my pool. Sunning himself, looking pretty comfortable. Let me know if I need to rattle the chains and let him loose. -Jim -

Not being a stock eliminator racer, trying to figure out this thread. please correct me if i am wrong, The argument here all comes down to the qualifying position.
I think the only race last year that was not all run was Indy?

What are the other concerns here?

Re: If you could run a National event without the AHFS in pl
 

It's about a level playing field: the Factory Shootout Entries runs are not part of AHFS the shootout itself is a separate race but entries are on the same qualifying sheet and can race in the same elimionator as regular Stock Eliminator Entries who's runs are part of AHFS.

Maybe some of our members and guests could share how they were personally affected by the shootout cars recently .........

And we must remember - every era had a group of cars that won too much ...

During the sixties the 55-57 Chevy's ( remember the Hydramatic? )
During the seventies Mopar's had a lock with wierd combo's
During the eighties Oldsmobile won everything with their 307
During the nineties the Fuel Injected LT1's played havoc
During the 00's the LS Series cars really came alive

And now we have a whole new group of killers.............And they too will pass ! ! !

Jack, excellent. I did not know a car guy could have such insightful theories. I have another theory. Bruce is a Democrat. Please don't tell me Charlie Bob is a Democrat

And ya know Jack, thinking about it, YOU'VE had them all except for the weird Mopars!

This means absolutely ZERO today. The fact that nhra screwed it's members in the past and the members allowed it does not mean that it is acceptable today. Jeff you are applauding a corrupt process. Not at all surprising because what is good for Jeff is all that counts. Everybody else can pound sand. Right!

Mr. Bruce do you still wear your letterman jacket?

Re: If you could run a National event without the AHFS in pl
 

Reduced to gibberish. That's all you have left?

Re: If you could run a National event without the AHFS in pl
 

No AHFS for anyone EVER!! No lead trophies for going fast ever!! Index is set by the record. Run faster then the index you get torn down and checked for legality and if passed index changed and you get bonus points for setting a record. Everything heads up run what you brung and hope you brung enough!!!

But these sneetches have no stars upon thars!!
