Hey David: doesn't it just make you laugh at all the guys that have never run next to a new Mustang? They've never seen the real issue up close and personal have they?. They don't know what it feels like to run 130 mph with your right foot on the front bumper, and to look over and have someone toying with you! It's a joke. When the new Challengers run 9.30's, the new Mustang will be the first stocker in the 8's. And that's a fact! JB

You guys live for today. Where is your sense of legay or history. Stock and Super Super Stock as we know it will be gone soon and you ignore becuse of your personal egos. NHRA as it is currently structured could care less. Wake up guys. It is time to ban together. Where is the current format going from here?
NHRA could give a rat's *** as long as you pay the freight.
Just my 2 cents as an observer and a former competitor who sincerley cares.

You guys crack me up. I understand about your situation with another car toying with you at the top end, don't it get you just a little upset. Sometimes you just have to make fun of it to save your own identy and insanity. But let me tell you what would send all of you through the roof.

1. Picture yourself against a car that has everybody in your class covered by three tenths.
2. Picture yourself against a car that has everybody in your class covered by five tenths.
3. Picture yourself against a car that has everybody in your class covered by seven tenths.
4. Imagine taking a .900 advantage on the tree and watching your opponent cross the
finish line while seeing his time on the scoreboard at the same time, while running .60
under yourself.

2. Lloyd MacKay U/SA
3. Bob Dennis U/SA
4. Bob Shaw U/SA

I still have my mind, but it is really funny sometimes.
I believe the "newer cars" will create some laughter.

Just add a new class called "LAPTOP STOCK",then us old timers/ old school ( "REAL STOCKERS") would still be in the ball game instead of sitting on the bench(in the bleachers). lol

David B, I got one better than that, In the Class final at Indy I get out run by .17 -1.07 to 1.24 under. Now here's the good part sence I ran faster than -1.15 in Q and so did another Class thats the same combo, My combo hits theTrigger and we get 4HP. Even better he's running a combination no one else in the country runs hes the onlyTrigger, I get to add 50lbs now i'm .25 hun. behind. So now all i can do is sing a Christmas song an be happy, all i want for Christmas is another two tenths, another two tenths, Find another two tenths GEE,if icould only find another Two tenths then i could have a Merry Christmas TOO! MERRY CHRISTMAS HO HO HO !

Why dont most of you (the ones who run the older combos) just set back and take a year (one season) off from kissing NHRA's ***** and let the new combos have at it? The lack of entries would get the ASSociations attention and maybe the newer combos would beat their own brains out and get some HP during the season. You could use that time to TEST and save a fortune in travel and entry expense. Would one season kill you?
