All I can say is WOW!!!

All I can say is I have never seen this much bickering about HP on any other make before.

In the past when Mopars or Fords get hit, there is not the commotion except with the GM racers happy they got HP.

Now Chevy products get hit with HP and I don't see the other guys happy it happened, except for Chevy racers fighting within themselves!

I do not believe the two racers meant to go that fast; like it was said before, the Pro racers were also flying down the track.

In the years I have been in the sport, with the exception of setting a record or being protested, I have never seen an engine taken apart after hitting the AHFS. Wrong or right, I do not believe NHRA is going to change the way the have been doing it.

What I believe is there are a lot of cars that are capable of running fast and holding back. Nevertheless, all it takes one hiccup while driving, you go fast when you didn't expect to do so and the cat is out of the bag!

If anyone feel that either any of both racers were cheating, then wait until the next race and protest them.
