Back from Indy-what's happened to Stock Eliminator??

[BadBanana]

Just one more thought. I DO like the new cars racing. I think it might bring back the fan base some and maybe that's what NHRA is looking at.
I'm just suggesting what I suggest so that those of you who have all your excess cash invested in an older car can still compete and have fun. I'm afraid if you guys don't amicably work it out, NHRA will continue to discourage the older cars until they give up - don't give them the opportunity. You might have to give up something, fight an uphill battle, actually work on your car to make it FASTER, but it will be a great TRIP !!

Also, I would like it if they took away all those electronic driving aids and put the driving back totally in the drivers hands, not buttons or switches. Line-locs and nothing else - maybe even take them away. We did without them for many years !!!
I remember back in '82 or '83 I as trying to get my '69 425hp 427 Camaro into the 9s in SS/EA. I was runnning very close (10.02, 10.03) which was very respectable back then. At Atlanta (Commerce GA) Dragway, at a meet the week before the Gators, I had made a couple of 10.03 runs when my Moroso cable drive tach broke. I had to run the first round without a tach and was forced to "feel it" in the seat of my pants. Result - first 9 second run (9.98) !!!
NOW, I'm done, maybe
