Only grudge I have with them is they should have to drive them to the lanes and back to trailer. Gezzzz guys you aren’t pros, actually your car is about as fast as a middle of the pack 10.90 car…..

I heard there will be 10.00 Index at the Dutch Classic. If so, I will bring 2 cars. See you at Maple Grove.

Did they also bring crew to the starting line to help them stage! LOL

I like to keep an open mind, we all like to think our little part of drag racing is about our car/class.

I don't like certain NHRA classes. The ones I don't like, I'm glad they're supporting NHRA/tracks. In-case you haven't noticed, tracks are closing at a higher rate than building new.

We need any drag racer to support drag racing/tracks. We need to get over ourselves, thinking we're special or our class deserves more; maybe so or maybe not.

I'm happy to be racing at any open racetrack, it beats the alternative! If it takes NHRA catering to the 8.50 index or JR's. If it keeps the sanction going & the tracks open, well !!!

"Spoiled Brat" chiming in here, racers who have never participated in JR Drag racing, should be asking yourself what then is the gateway to get kids and other families involved in drag racing?

The future of racing does involve those under the age of 16 who are eager to learn how to compete, dial a car, drive the stripe etc. When I was a little rug rat watching my Dad run S/SS I wanted nothing more than to race. Again, my opinion as a former "Spoiled Brat", but don't worry in a few years I will be out at 0730 warming my kids car up :D

Ken needs to change the forum to Bitching Class Racer.com. 5 Pages of complaints and only one congrats to Cliff and Bill for the weekend.

James, My advice would be to focus on your racing and stop worrying and complaining about JRs, A lot are moving to S/SS and drive extremely well. You and I need to have a couple of glasses of Scotch to relax you.

MoJo, My 20 Yr old Daughter Lynda came from JRs and loves S/SS, Has a 4.0GPA in St Johns for Accounting. She is far from Spoiled and works hard for everything, All the Old Grumpy candy asses better get used to it.

Dead on with a zero!!

This forum has always been about old men complaining about the NHRA, other classes, juniors, costs, schedule, time runs tech, class eliminations, Indy, etc.

PATHETIC!!

Yes, I noticed your daughter did very well. Fortunately, she is one of a kind. A lot of these kids aren?€™t like your daughter. I went to bed at 9:00 and by 9:30 I was awakened by a bunch of squealing kids next-door did not understand it, but was, very delighted when this rain came and made them go inside. anyway congratulations to your daughter Lynda and. I would like to say the older I get the more I actually enjoy bitching. The wife says I am a marshmallow curmudgeon. Lol
And just to add, anybody that doesn?€™t bitch a little or at least take notice of what is going on around us maybe doomed, ever wonder why they?€™re bringing in some of these classes I don?€™t think any of you will like it while you are sitting still not objecting when they decide to take away stock and superstock because it?€™s much easier to bring in the Index classes, no tech, no hassles and all are heads up racing
I can always change my cars to run whatever but I?€™m sure you guys would be at a big loss so maybe some should stand up and complain about these types of things Or maybe just the sky is falling, I don?€™t know, see you at epping where I?€™m sure to find something else to complain about?€?..
