Must more lives be lost before they get it. How does an official like Graham Light make a statement like he did to the Pro Stock guys and get away with it?
Does NASCAR blatantly compromise the safety of their racers or spectators?
NHRA apparently does not care about anything but lining their pockets.

They are clueless because they do not have people with the right technical knowledge and they depend on the so called "Experts" at SFI. In the past I have have confronted SFI on many issues just to have them hang their phone on my ear.

Again, the dynamics of a NASCAR or Formula 1 car are not the same as a Funny Car or Dragster. It requires a sound technical approach in the same fashion when Ford got all their engineers involved during the re-design of the cockpit of Funny cars after John Force's crash. The Ford engineers learned the dynamics were completely different when compared to other types of motor sports.
