[TS310C]

Ok, I have the following opinions (if anyone cares).

1. "Getting rid of t/s and or electronics to save money." I would think this would cost more racers than it would save, myself included. So what am I supposed to do with my motor and other equipment. There is no way my car will run in super gas or super comp without a throttle stop.

2. "If racers want to go fast, they can run T/S or T/D." There are too things wrong with this. First I can tell you from experience there is a HUGE difference in cost between running a fast super class car and running on of those classes. Sure you might be able to take the stop off and qualify at some races, but (at least in Div 3) there will be several races you wont qualify at. Nationals will be the same way. Secondly, there are a huge amount of roadsters that run in both S/G and S/C. They are not allowed in either T/S or T/D.

3. "We should go back to the way it used to be, the cars are getting too fast" Do you see any other forms of racing or any other classes going backwards? Top Fuel used to only run in the 9's but things evolve. Technology gets better and we go faster. It's all part of racing. Honestly it's not a cheap sport no matter how you do it. There are plenty of local programs that people can run with any car they want to (including what they drove to the track) there are options out there for everyone. There are pleny of racers that like things the way they are.

4. "The spectators don't like/understand super class racing." I have heard people say the stands are empty durring our classes. Have you looked at the stands durring other classes. I can say for Div 3 at least (with the exception of Norwalk) there aren't that many people there to begin with. If everyone attending came to watch durring the super classes the stands would still look empty. Untill NHRA learns from ADRL and starts giving tickets away (like Norwalk) there wont be many spectators for any class. Would you rather have 500 people pay $45 to get in or let 5000-10000 people in for free and sell food, beer and t-shirts.

This is just my opinion and everyone it entitled to agree or disagree with me.

Ok, I'm getting off my soap box.
