i feel sorry for the racer, however nhra like nascar has the right to enforce thier rules (unmodified) and it is about time techmen were allowed to do thier job...

flame away... captain jack
Jack...what part you do not understand...the main problem is there are no published specs for Stock eliminator...and like many have said, with the new valve rule, the specs will change even if you are using a virgin head.

NHRA created this problem throughout the years, and now they are trying to fix it...or better word, put a Band-Aid. Throughout the years, there was too much inconsistency between the divisions in what was or was not legal...add to that the overriding that took place in Glendora.

...and by the way...discrimination is not the only basis for lawsuits...one of my jobs in my profession is involved in product liability cases.
