Please take the time ASAP to e-mail NHRA's tech department with your safety concerns regarding the use of aftermarket strut rods to control the unsafe movement, during wheel stands and braking! There is no performance advantage here......strictly safety. Tom Nolan A/SA 6015

Unfortunately, it seems that the safety of the racers is not their concern nor the investment we have in our race cars. Very sad state of affairs NHRA.
