7 hrs!! Wow, that is bordering on the absurd...especially at a divisional. My round one loss isn't so painful now. It would be WAY worse to sit around for 8 hrs THEN lose round two.

One more absurd NHRA move from the weekend. I weighed my car Thurs after tech....3420 lbs (30lbs over min.)... after qualifying on Friday my car was again 3420 lbs...after 2nd round of qualifying on Sat. I was told I was UNDER weight at 3375 lbs. I didn't change a thing on my car. I questioned the tech official...guess what...he said they recalibrated the scales. I talked to at least 10 people who's weight varied 15-35 lbs. light on Saturday.
