the nhra website says that they are going to run the last three rounds in Gainesville during qualifications

Pro Stock will be finished during qualifying at Gainesville. Probably because NHRA wants to avoid anymore disasters at Phoenix. Like the Pro Stock guys refusing to race.

Well I'm glad to see the Pro Stock guys band together and tell NHRA they are not racing on the Phoenix track. Only problem is, I am sure no one at NHRA will think twice about having us lowly Sportsman racers go down that sh**hole!

alan from what i was told they were leaving before nhra put out the statement, but i think you are right the didn't want to explain where they had gone.

I think the NHRA should be replacing to pro stock cars. That was terrible, that was just like National Trails a few years back!

Okay it's early in the morning. That is two pro stockers!

While we're talking about the past weekend's crashes/incidents, just think about the new "4 wide Drag Racing" format that is coming up soon at Brutonville, USA.... That could turn things into a real freak show...... When are they going to stop letting the INMATES run the INSANE ASSYLUM???

All I have to say is Antron's car sure had no problem climbing that wall....imagine a car's in the other lane at Concord and runs into trouble (Tire smoke) and is on and off the throttle putting him behind and bam here comes Antron's front end over the wall...

Prostock question: on tracks that are known to have traction issues. Why does't NHRA have spec spoiler wickerbills that can be added to the end of the tail spoilers on request? These cars are working now with almost no down force to speak of and only get lighter with speed. It seems it would make the cars more stable and a tad slower, but isn't NHRA supposed to be all about safety? I know I don't know much about these cars but it was just a thought.
