MAN THAT IS JUST IS A BAD DEAL NO MATTER HOW YOU LOOK AT IT!

NHRA had plenty of trouble with the 4 wide deal last week.
As well as the deal in pro stock... Jason Line had another bit of trouble in stock.
The dial was changed AFTER the cars were staged.
To top it all off...He had a .007 light!

It amazes
Most cars that pull up to race ( S/C S/G S/ST Etc.) have more technology in them that the starting and timing system has to offer.

DID YOU KNOW
The timing system NHRA uses is a DOS based system
without windows or any modern operating system.
It is slow old and cumbersome.
They need to use 2 systems at once just to keep thing moving along.

hummm...
How much is that "enhanced experience" costing again...
Maybe with all the money the guys are saving by not giving out Wally's for class singels
they can get a better timing system.
Just an idea..
