So much for that argument !
Seems when Mr. Bader ran IHRA it did well.
He moved on and things changed.
IHRA was quite innovative bringing in new types of classes.
Classes that NHRA glommed on to.
NHRA, NMCA, IHRA, AHRA can all do what they want.
They are all competing for our business.
It was the fickleness of Racers that stiffed armed IHRA Class Racing.
If you had shown up there would be IHRA Class racing.
It is a Lost Opportunity because of your behavior and attitudes.
You did not support the sport !!

No Dingbat Dan its hard to have a conversation with you! IHRA invented those classes to try to get people to come race with them plain and simple. They thought they could fill races with glorified street cars like yours but instead they ran off the few class racers they had left. No 1/4 racing, no contingency, no nothing was the demise of IHRA amongst other things. Yep I didn't go the last 4 years because I was busy racing somewhere else!
I support the sport where I want to race and don't really give a damn about what you think. Many of the same people who thought IHRA was more racer friendly, or didn't want to take an extra day off to go race, people that race NHRA are a bunch of snobs with big toterhomes blah blah are some of the same people who want these cars added now that they have no place to play.
Last comment I will make on this useless thread.
