Vegas Stock gets 1 hit and first round next day why
 

Don't think it's fair.

Re: Vegas Stock gets 1 hit and first round next day why
 

Because the class run off time was rained out. You don't expect them to bump off a pro session so you could have class eliminations, do you ?
Fair ? hmmm...

Re: Vegas Stock gets 1 hit and first round next day why
 

10 years ago at the Northwest Nationals Super Stock went into eliminations with no qualifying runs.

Rain people. Must be Nhra fault. But it never rains on keyboard complaint systems

The "Fair" comes to town once a year. This ain't it!

Re: Vegas Stock gets 1 hit and first round next day why
 

Some real weirdos hanging around that fair....

Lol you kill me

James,
Lonnie paid the tab, and is a contestant there in LV.
I would say he has every right to comment here and register a complaint ,if he chooses to .

Ya and I went the Keystones the last 2 years.Got a time run Saturday ran first round Monday. Did they allow a withdraw? Can't fool with Mother Nature

What I'm saying...
If you race national events in Stock Eliminator with NHRA, and expect fair treatment,
Fuggetaboutit, ...right?
Come to think about it ,it's the same if you don't race with them right now.

They have to keep to the schedule as much as they can. What about the people that can't hang around for a extra day and need to get over with . They will never be able to make everybody happy so Why try.

Re: Vegas Stock gets 1 hit and first round next day why
 

I understand mother nature dictates the schedule. No curfew in Vegas. Run until its no longer safe or everyone in all classes gets 1 pass in each lane.

Re: Vegas Stock gets 1 hit and first round next day why
 

Severe wind (80), dust and rain damage. Track and pits were a mess, big rig blow overs!! White knuckles the entire trip! They worked thier tails off getting it ready!

Re: Vegas Stock gets 1 hit and first round next day why
 

I couldn't agree with you more Mark, and I feel for every racer who wound up only getting two runs for their $330-$340 entry fee. That's pretty weak bang for the buck....I hope the weather is better this week than last week???? However, remember last years divisional had rain all three days and was completed in November. So I hope the GOOD LORD smiles upon the "Strip at Las Vegas" so we can run the race like normal!

You have to remember we sportsman racers are JUST FILLER
Pros are the Show .Its about the $50 paying customer There are 10,000 of thousands of fans that are there to see WHATS LEFT OF THE PROS lol

Re: Vegas Stock gets 1 hit and first round next day why
 

Speaking of "filler".........I wonder what it would take for a "stocker" to be a filler #16 in a 15 car Pro Stock field?>???

I would'nt mind being a "1st round duck"for that money

Re: Vegas Stock gets 1 hit and first round next day why
 

At Speedworld years ago they had a guaranteed top 8 payout in a Pro Mod class. Only 6 cars showed up so I took my GT/DA Monte and qualified 5th out of 7 cars in the field. After last qualifying pass the director came over and said no go. I asked why and he said car doesnt pass tech for Pro Mod. I stated that its teched for the speed it was running. Still didn't work.

Re: Vegas Stock gets 1 hit and first round next day why
 

Over the years, I can recall several times we raced without ANY time runs....Line em' up, run em; sometimes on Monday. I don't recall any of us ever being "vaginally damaged" by this as it was almost always a weather thing and out of everyone's control. Things commonly happen at the races that seem unfair to those involved but in defense of the upper management (even Graham) the correct call is made most of the time. Nut up Buttercup; It's racin' and this is no place for a snowflake.

Well put Mr. Turner. Always nice to read your poetry. Been awhile, hope all is good

Hey Tom
Maybe before you start publicly slandering people and calling people out as vaginas, buttercup, snow flakes ect ..you should probably not say anything at all as you have no idea who Lonnie is or know him personally..
I do know Lonnie personally and just so you understand its people like you on this site that have a huge part of our sport calling S/SS racers a bunch of A- -holes . Both Lonnie and a very good friend of his are new to Stock Elliminator and between the two of them will bring 3 new cars into the classes with fresh blood and new drivers to support our classes. Lonnie has not completely learned yet how NHRA operates on all levels yet but they are spending money , building cars ect ect to keep this class alive , I don't think for one minute that neither him or anyone else deserve the kind of bull--it post you just put up . So get a life idiot and have a wonderful day as both Lonnie and his buddy Billy are both back at Las Vegas for Divisional having a great weekend....
