See you around the pits, wait you have no place to race with your car as it sits now, so I guess that it will be my bad luck to keep coming across your inane posts on ClassRacer...

Build a car to fit, run someplace else, or go bracket racing. Hard for me to understand someone not simply building a car that could run anywhere to begin with. E T Bracket cars can, and cheaply.

Not all fast NHRA class cars have $6000.00 transmissions. Not all fast NHRA class cars have Warren Engines (or equivalent) professionally built engines. It's all more expensive for people that have to write big checks for everything.

I really don't see what the big deal is about letting the IHRA class cars run with the NHRA class cars. All you guys keep telling us to go bracket race. Um I'm really not sure if you guys are aware but that's all your doing now is bracket racing. So after reading all these complainers blogs all I can come up with is the guys that claim they have 50k to 100k in a car are pretty much scared of being trailered by a 20k dollar car running a crate motor abiding by the same rules as the 100k dollar cars have. Remember at the end of the day all it is is a high dollar bracket race. For the dilution comments, there are crate motor cars with a lot of money thrown at them as well. Why can't we all just race together and have fun. That's what it's all about. Stop being hateful. :cool:

No, the fight is about using showroom available engines in showroom available bodies in STOCK Eliminator.

Have you ever tried to explain a SS/GT car to a casual fan? at least with stock and SS(traditional) its alot easier to explain. A crate motor stocker is barely a step removed from a bracket car
