Seriously? And, yes, I would say the same about 2bl SS cars and FWD. Too many obsure classes.

Actually i lost first round of the World finals race this year due to a a heads up against Mark Young in a 2 barrell class..we arent running 2bl instead of 4bl to shy away from heads up runs infact if that was the case im sure Homer would have put a 4bl on his car years ago because he couldnt run with Mark...a SS/Production car won D 9 in super stock this year and another was runner up in super stock this year and i believe Mark was 5th this year so you got 3 out of the top 5 in Div 9 are 2 bl cars...are you saying if IHRA removes the 2bl production class you would run IHRA and so would everyone else that doesnt even bother to run a race with us...i didnt think so everyone can come on here and type IHRA needs to do this to be better or do that and we will come....who gives a rip about the 2bl production class or the 4 bl production class i think people need to quit making excuses for reasons why IHRA is not getting the car count...its not the number of classes its the pride that it would take someone to admitt that maybe just maybe they are a good association to run with and have a good program but its like that ole joke blablabla is like riding a mo ped its fun untill your friends catch you right!!!

I personally think it is horse crap that there are people who think classes we run should be deleted by IHRA yes I run a production 2bl car and i won D9 in it this year i wouldnt trade that for nothing and yes i have a god aweful crate motor stocker also its the decay of IHRA stock get over it guys IHRA gave the working class man a place to race and have fun on a budget and thats what we do have fun and race.....im with Beard maybe we should just start saying lets get rid of this because i dont like it or understand it...i bet the guy that invented the cell phone took the same kind of crap i read on here sometimes but look at those bad boys now i can complain on here all day with my cell phone via internet wow...

Has anyone looked at those 2-barrel carbs these guys run? They are the 500cfm Holley that are scienced-out to the nth degree to flow almost as well as a mediocre, out-of-the-box,4bbl. Additionally, they have tricked-out sheet-metal intakes, with angle-milled big valve heads and over-balanced cranks, and super lightweight rotating assemblies(hence, 9500 launch w/10,000 rpm trap zingers). I think most of them just like the challenge of being different and the sound of a smallblock (Ford or Chevy) going down the track. Have you ever heard Joe B's wild Chevy injected V6 in his Mustang scream on top end? Gotta love it.
