Re: Nitro drivers PO'd at WJ
NHRA should love this. It is about time there are some people angry at others. It would be nice if they were in the same class and could get a rivalry going but this could be good too. I am so sick of all the lovey dovey interviews at the end of the track talking about how great the other team is and what a great driver the other guy is. It is total bs. Of course back to the original subject. WJ is right. NHRA would be a lot further along if they only showed Pro Stock and quit showing the unbelievably boring Nitro classes on tv. I must admit the first national event I went to I was so impressed by the feel, smell, and sound of the nitro cars. By the time I left, I was done with them. The novelty was over. I want to see drag racing and about 10% of Nitro races include a drag race. About 90% of Pro Stock includes a drag race. Nitro cars are point and shoot, maybe pedal or hit the brake, a Pro Stock car has more going on in the first 2 seconds than Nitro does in 4. And they only go 1000 feet. Boring.
