Maybe this is what IHRA needs to expand to the West Coast????


I find it hard to believe that NHRA would entertain the idea of using a 1980 Stock cutoff.
That sounds almost borderline insane to do that to their racers.


However.....could Nostalgia Stock Eliminator be very far away ??
Nostalgia Super Stock is popular right now.

I'd be willing to bet Charlie is sitting there laughing his ***** off at the panic and speculation he set off with his post.

Terry,I'm to the point I could give two turds less.The only thing I'll miss are the good people (racers and famalies and crew members,fans and the NHRA crews) at the events.I could be happy convertinting the car to street use and finishing my '65 Rambler s/w and driving that.I took the gremlin to about 5 or six car shows and had a great time at all of them.The car attracted quite a bit of attention and the people were great.

NHRA doesn’t make any money on older cars. They could care less about a 1969 camaro in A/SA that gets killed week in and week out by new cars. It cost more time ,money and employee’s to police these older cars and the cheating that going on with them. The newer cars are way easier to police. NHRA wants SS/STK to be easier to control with less bit^hing. And to taking up less time on the track. STK and SS are just filler for the big show. You guys need to wake up. When NHRA goes to this three day format what do you think they’re going to cut out? Extra cars. They want to see 30-40 New CJ’s,DP and camaro’s because that what people in the auto industry are talking about. The old days are over, some of you just can’t seem to get it through you heads.

Ed NHRA could care less about what you think, you don't pay the bills. The 2500 plus fans that come to each national event and buy beer,food and t-shirts pay 80 plus % of the bills. And when they leave they don't bitc$ about hp or rules or call CA on monday. They just want to know the date for next years event.

That's exactly what I was thinking. They just went from 1960 or 1955. If they were to make a 1980 cut off they would be losing 80% or more of their cars. Which in this case, cars=$$$$. I call Bullsh!t!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
