Take this from someone who has been around this for a LONG LONG TIME for far and up VERY CLOSE you can not ride the fence to see which way the wind is blowing, DON"T worry about protecting the FORDS cause you have a interest there!!!!!! JUST DO WHAT IS BEST FOR TOTAL SPORT and you will come out ahead in the BIG Picture!!!!!!!

The members who I was involved with have a real passion and we gave our all to make some simple changes to enhance the racing, but we got nowhere.

I've said a million times that I agree the CJs are way underfactored. Everyone gets this. I don't disagree one bit with that and I never have. From the start I've only chimed in when there was misinformation about the CJs, of which there was a lot of.

There is quite a lot that needs to be fixed with the current State of stock and Super Stock. I tried to do my share and didn't get far. Maybe the CJs and the Challengers should get a seperate class, maybe not. I also think there is some validity that they should be in SS since they are not street-legal. All good ideas. Maybe NHRA should have a better AHFS system that can work quicker than the one it has.

Regardless, you can either fold up, complain, or go out and have fun racing with your friends. Win, lose or draw, I have fun at the track. If was even fun losing to that Camaro of yours because I really enjoyed that style of racing (of course I wished you would have run in 2008). In time it will shake out and there will be another killer combo for everyone to complain about.
