I had the opportunity to run heads-up against one of the CJ's (Semi-finals in class, LVMS) and THAT is when you realize how very wrong the situation is. The CJ had a R/T that started with a 3, hit the brakes at the thousand foot, TWICE, and still ran a 10.02!! It made my 10.36 look totally inadequate.

The two CJ drivers showed a complete lack of "Sportsmanship" when they refused to accept the standard method of pairing up cars. They wanted an all Ford final, we wanted a Camaro vs Ford final. We knew we were going to get our asses kicked, but it would have been fun. (Remember fun? Isn't that why we're here?)

I hope to pair up with them in regular eliminations the future. I don't believe either of them can cut a light.
