I know personally how hard art has had to work to get his combo to run, both the turbo dodge (which i owned) and his current non-turbo (that's right, no turbo) dodge. It took art several years to sort out the neon ss car and he has every right to be proud of his accomplishments with that car. If it were so damn easy to make that combo run there would be as many of them out there as there are lt/ls1 camaros. Art has made every mopar car he has raced fast! From the 4 banger to the mighty hemi. How many racers out there can say that? Some people need to have a little more respect for people such as art who think out of the box and just love to be different! Jim

(H/SA) Volare)I have 8 spark plugs now! I also have a combo with 4 spark plugs.(A/FS Neon) Ooooops! No "club" membership for me! Do yourself a favor, engage your brain before you post James, or better yet keep your elitist comments to yourself. Oh and you can stick your "club" where the sun don't shine. Jim

Jim. Thanks.
He does not realize the party has just begun. But it will be over eventually.

All I wanted to do here is show how little actually got paid out to class winners in general.
To show that is not the main reason for the change. Which has greatly effected a lot of racers that did nothing but follow the rules.
As far as the badmouthing goes I'm about as po'd as I was when they gave me the 8.25% But this time I'll take it in increments of .05.

I was told it had a turbo. If not I apologize. I'm certainly not interested enough to look it up in the rule book. Just hearing from him how fast he is, even with half his RPM left in the trailer. Who cares?

I may be all wrong on this but I've never read any where that anybody owes us any thing for winning class. Yes there are a few companies that graciously do provide a financial incentive for anyone winning class. Some of you (art) seem to believe this to be some sort of birth rite. Some of you know me ,alot don't but I have one of those obscure class cars, it's not the fastest one but it's not the slowest either. I do the best I can with the money and ability that I have. Yes I've made single runs and gotten a trophy and some cash, however I don't believe it's OWED to me it's just money that people were kind enough to offer for winning your particular class period. By looking at Nitro Joes stats there were 8 SS/BX cars at the races this year I did not see a one of them. There seems to one bad dad on top of the small heap,hope he stays out west, but even if we were to meet I'd take my whoopen and go on cause I race for my own personal enjoyment. Hell if the truth were known most racers would still go even if there were NO chance of winning any money. Yeah we all dream of having the best, fastest, nicest this and that but bottom line someone is always gonna 1 up ya so be happy with what you got and go on. Thanks for reading my opinoin. Joe
