What has happened to the Pro Car Counts?

Bruce Noland · 01-30-2012, 06:41 PM

I read the Gainesville quota thread and decided to check out the entry list. I know zero about the Pro's - couldn't name 10 of them outside Pro Stock. And, I also know we discuss Sportsman Racing on this site but have to wonder if Pro racing isn't in a little bit of trouble. But I also wonder why the English language has so few words that begin with Q.

That's the quintessential question...or, if you prefer, query.

Bruce Noland · 01-30-2012, 07:09 PM

Bret, a quick question for you. Do you think that a quarter of the Pros have slipped quietly away?

Bruce Noland · 01-30-2012, 07:31 PM

Cell phone duplicate. I will quit using it to post.

Michael Beard · 01-30-2012, 07:39 PM

Hm. That is a quandry.

The answer to this quixotic question lies in the quantifiable qualifications of this most quizzical quorum.

Not enough quarters?

Quad Force is entered...how could anyone ask for more?

I heard that a few of the GM guys will be inside one of these 'new slicker' COPO Camaro bodies for Pro Stock this year.

Most have gone broke. Not enough sponsors to pizz enough money away on them? Maybe NHRA will wake up and change the rules so more teams can play? Naaa I doubt it.
