Default Re: GM Releases 2013 bogus HP ratings at PRI show

I don't race Stock anymore but it's not the new cars that ruined it for me, it was the heads-up races in eliminations, simply took too much money to try to keep the car fast enopugh to protect your expenses and race for a purse that is less than my local bracket track pays every weekend.

Do you guys EVER see each other at the track????????????? That could get interesting with the attitudes you have on a keyboard.

The "Deal" has been struck by NHRA to get the factories involved, get over it. Want to fix the issue, don't support NHRA events and let them know every week why 200 of you are staying home from their events.

Money is the only pressure NHRA can bend over for. It has always been that way (SFI rules for seatbelts, the old muffler rule, trans shields that "wear out" in 5 years, etc, etc.) and it will always be that way as they need more cash to operate.

It wouldn't surprise me if they drop Stock/Super Stock becasue of the rule enforcement personnel it takes and the constant complaining. Add another 100 Super Class, Top Dragster, Top Sportsman and footbrake racers to a National Event and those spectators won't notice a thing. Sad day if it happens, but in my opinion it is a viable option for them.
