But I will be damned if I will mortgage my house, or spend all of my savings to race.

I suppose if some people wish to out spend the rest of us, and drive us out, and NHRA is willing to be a party to it, then so be it.
Life is full of tough decisions - BTW racing is not one of them -- but it was easy for me to make the switch - taking the leap came naturally to me - I am sure you folks with money (you do not want spend) are making the correct decision for your selves.

Fault me for my decision - that makes sense

I did not out spend anyone - you all have more money than me - I am not trying to drive any one out - I am saying run nostalgia stock with a 40 year old car.
