Good post. One reason why I quit over 10 years ago. NHRA and IHRA has/had some great tech people but the cylinder head deal went out of control many moons ago. Everyone became law suit crazy over a hobby. Not to mention light cranks, rods, Shubeck style lifters, aftermarket pistons in stock with moved valve reliefs, etc. This might pizz off some on here but I really dont care. Stock has become a joke. S/S has become WAY to expensive to be a front runner for the pay outs one can expect to win unless you run a car in BRACKET MODE !
