Default Re: Suspension Notice for S/SS by NHRA

Gentlemen, I have read this thread and all the posts over and over again. I am bracket racer that has no dog in this hunt but will tell you that the car that I own and drive ( sometimes on the street ) has some of the be.st offerings the aftermarket can supply. I say this because the the car was assembled using NHRA stocker rules. It would not take much to make it a legal stocker. What the NHRA has done is an abomination as far as safety is concerned. To say in a letter that this will happen because of skinny front tires, you seriously have to question whether any thought or research was given to that answer. I would be embarrased to give that answer and you should embarrased that you as members of the NHRA pay to have have this person representing you. Has the the NHRA done any research , any R& D or any A B A comparison to come out with this rule. Safety in this sport is job 1. I have no idea what these people are thinking and am glad they don't represent me. There are too many very knowledgeable people in the sport to call upon to settle this problem. I normally don't ramble on like this but I have to say I am with the racers completely on this. SAFETY above all.
