I think I'll just keep slingin' my junk. I'm having just as much fun and running for just as much money as the snobs.

Ya know, Billy? With all due respect, I ain't met all these "elitist snobs" you keep talking about. I've met a lot of people who had nicer stuff than we did. Some were faster. Some were not. But the attitudes I ran into had little, if anything, to do with money. Or parts.
Money only makes people more of what they are without it. Me? Well, you can ask a lot of people, I'm a ......... well, I ain't gonna post that on Ken's site. I'd be the same if I had millions.
The more I think about it, the more I think you missed the entire point of the post you quoted, it went over your head I guess. I'd hate to think you just ducked intentionally, but then, maybe you did.
The point of that post is, you won't be racing, either. If you think that "little old you", and your "junk", by yourself, will keep the doors open on all these drag strips, and keep these people putting on these races, you ain't watchin all of them close. I'm pretty sure class racing can't survive and keep losing participants. Whether you like those people or not.
