Going back to Nitro Joes stats through 2006, I've always had a car in the top 10 in either A or B so I think my car runs pretty decent. I never had a heads up race where I didn't feel I had a legitimate shot, until today.
I don't fault Doug or anyone who races a CJ or a Challenger. I do however put the onus on NHRA to factor these cars correctly, and they have failed miserably.
To watch a car in your same class ride the break pedal from the 1000' mark all the way to the finish line is discouraging and a slap in the face.
This may sound like sour grapes to some, but for those who have put the time, effort and money into your cars as I have and to be mitigated to a middle of the pack car by the swipe of a pen, I'm sure you can relate.

I have no problem relating to that! For years I have watched your sucess with the L88s L78s and its fueled my passion for my own R&D engine program, and Iam the first defender of the old school big blocks, but maybe it time you put the same work ethic into lets say a late model LS7 vette for A/S, oh I forgot where talking about NHRA here like their going to let that run.
