No one is holding a gun to anybodies head to go race NHRA. ( Except maybe in South Carolina.) If you don't want to race with NHRA ... DON'T. Plain and simple. Race IHRA, race local Brackets, don't race at all, go fishing, but for God's sake, EVERYONE, quit bitching about it. This is still America, and we still do have the right to choose. I will choose to race,( maybe not as often), Wherever, whenever, I want to, and my budget will allow. JB

jim i have never met you , i have been told you are a stand up guy! but your attitude in regards to the ongoing situation that nhra has all spotsmen racers involved in sucks, you know nhra is running over all of us and instead of saying i will stick with my competitors and do something about it you just say to hell with it im here for me and everyone else can deal with it! as much as 8 years ago i can remember dan dvorak on these forums preaching to the quire about this coming down the pipe from nhra and everyone called him a freak told him he was crazy that nhra would nevere do anything intentionally to screw the sportsman racer! well dan was correct ! he has been correct since i first spoke with hi m in 1988! and has been on key since, just to let you know i have gone fishing no one is holding a gun to my head to go racing i just about plain quit because of the so called inhancements nhra has been providing me since 1994, i really got a taste in 2002 from graham light and co. in maple grove and to be honest things have just been going down hill with nhra since i have not raced much since then and i thank god that i have been able to sit back and watch what is going on instead of being blind with racing fever and not realizing what has been going on. im not holding a gun to your head to sway you, just making true statements about what i have seen since 1986 when i started, i know you have been at this along time like most of us , if something is not done now about nhra using the sportsman racer to pick up the tabs for there own incompetence ,we as stock, super stock or any other sportsman class racers are doomed ! and i would not be surprised with the most recent round of $ inhancements if we get written off completely somewhere down the road.
IF YOU CARE ABOUT WHAT YOU ARE DOING DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT!
