Billy Myers fired the warning shot years ago for IHRA class racing, why anyone would want to have continued racing IHRA invented classes after that fair warning is a little beyond sympathy and understanding. My dad always said "it was a snake and you picked it up anyway"...............some of you guys understood you were taking a chance, what were the rest of you thinking about ????
That doesn't make any sense, that was like 30 years ago. I raced over 15 years in a "IHRA invented class" . There were a few IHRA invented classes that NHRA was more than happy to pick up top sportsman top dragster and pro modified for example. Let the man be if he wants to campaign for his class let him. I've been reading these threads and what it boils down to is some stuck up class racers that feel he doesn't deserve to race with them or even discuss on a website.
