since the question was asked of me i will express my complete opinion...

Sharp is fast ... very fast 9 months ago I posted when sharp smashed the index in CM and my main concern then was is this guy going to stay in the class ? I dont want to see superstock modified to be some sort of test lap for compguys who can and will deystroy the indexes then go back to comp . I wish NHRA would protect our classes from that kind of behavior . I am glad that Lee sharp has committed to SS/CM and seems he has done very well in the class , I hope that he and others will recognize that just because they are fortunate enought to have the means to BUY the best patterson motors and parts in existance they dont need to come out and prove anything by going half a second faster than the rest of the cars in the class . In Vegas last year we won class with a 9.00 against craig marshall who ran 9.001 . That is exciting racing and the type of racing that makes class fun in my opinion . Seeing a guy go 5 tenths faster than the rest is a complete *** kicking and does nothing but piss people off . As far as working harder that doesnt stand a chance against an unlimited check signer in modified ....
