That was my point! They make rules that suit themselves.... They can loose money, they are a Not for profit..
This must be a good example of the large profit level of a Div. race to NHRA. They have chosen to loose money or they made enough to throw away the profits from another weekend of racing (race date used for Makeup race). They are applying a double overhead to a race. I know what it cost me to open a track, pay employees, insurance and all the costs. This just isn't good business sense, much less the correct way to treat customers. Rick, I was trying to state it nicely and let eveyone read between the lines instead of just calling it a dumb A** business move. O.K. now I 've done gone and said it.. shame, shame...

Did SS ever make a qualifying run? Fuel check, weight etc...?
I call BS also based on this (no runs) and agree with JimiB's observations. Based on another post I am apparantly wrong. Seems if you went thru tech you are in. Last edited by SS Engine Guy; 04-25-2010 at 12:46 PM. |

I wondered what the story was since I left this morning when it started raining. There were a couple of versions of the story on line. Here is one to add. I heardfrom a friend who was in the tower that the rescheduled race would be the week after Norwalk, but I also heard that that Stock SS would be all run no pairings or heads up first round like a National Open.
That would allow new entries. I guess we will have to wait to see if Jay is going with version one, two, three or none of the above.

I planned on attending, but it is a 650 mile trip from Minnesota, to far to sit and watch it rain. The field should be open to all that want to attend. Dyno
