Default Re: Crate Motor Class

When I built my car everything around here was IHRA, I could basically run every division 9 race without leaving my state. Closest NHRA race at the time was Charlotte which is about 5 hours from me and ofcourse it was a National event so you had to go to a division race to be able to enter Charlotte, closest division race was Bristol at around 7 hours. Point is I didn't even consider building a CM car because of the reasons everyone has said plus the fact you were also limiting the people you could sale it to if you ever wanted to. Why go that far into a build and stop a couple thousand short of making it a car that could race anywhere.
I really do hate it for you guys I honestly do but to me it would be more of a slap in the face than the factory cars when they were introduced into the regular classes. I for one like many others will welcome anyone who comes out to race but you're going to need to switch your combo. If NHRA ever did approve these cars I would still welcome you all with open arms but I would probably be pissed lol.
Y'all say look at from your point of view but maybe you should do the same and look at from the point of view of the people who spent the money and went through the trouble of getting the hard to find parts.
