Excessive Breaking?

[Bob Mulry]

Since I have bin in this country a long distance and speck well English, I feel qualified to comment on the NHRA to English dictionary....

I would like to give the newbie’s and people who don't get it some information......

NHRA will resist at all costs putting anything in writing......

When NHRA puts something in writing it is intentionally vague so that NHRA has wiggle room......

If NHRA publishes a clear and concise policy they might have to back it up......

Everything that NHRA does is blurry so than they can't be held accountable....

NHRA will make a printed rule only when they have no other choice and that rule will written in NHRA-speak which is open to interpretation differently by everybody...

This is why they use NHRA-speak, which is their own language……

This is a brave new world now, that has no accountability.......

Maybe you need to re-think your comment !
Either Race the rules or park it !
Slamming the brakes at the stripe is a no no -- no matter what class !
I can't tell you how many crashes I've seen at the stripe because of Idiot's slamming the brakes ! Or don;t race in NHRA !

Don't mean two sound course, NHRA should bee concerned with this situation, they mite set a precedent if they included it inn the rules. Eye believe that if they did, someone wood invent a smokeless tire.

New Rule Rule; their will bee know smoking at the Finnish line.

After reading all the posts about spelling, I knew someone was going to do that.

Just going by what I read here and not seeing the run, my thoughts are if they gave me a warning the round before, I don't think I would go out and hit the brakes next round with the bulls eye already on my back.

I have a question about this deal.

Instead of excessive braking, what would happen if you just lifted your foot off the throttle a bit at the finish line???

Might take a little time to know how much is enough and I am not talking taking you foot completely off the pedal, just enough to slow down safely.

Yes, I know it is about dumping the other guy or gal.

Someone might want to ask the final race winner in this case about the result of his excessive braking at the finish line at the Salt Lake Division Race in 2015.
I was there and parked two trailers down from him.

[QUOTE=Bob Mulry;528093]Maybe the NHRA plan is to sell off their assets such as National Trail, hide the money and then off-shore it???????


Bob, I think they need money.
Just look at the expenses they are cutting by cutting employees.
Just not enough there in payroll to cover what is needed.

Since you appear to be an expert on NHRA rules, could please point me to section that addresses excessive braking???????

It's nice having an expert around when you need one.....

They keep cutting sportsman racers,I don’t understand that, they could have had a lot more stockers. So if they allow 20 more that is 6000 dollars plus crew members it isn’t rocket science.

Great piece of driving by Mr Emmons, it looked as text book as finish line driving can be. Nothing in the video that I saw constituted a DQ and the dude got screwed! If you don't use your brakes at the finish line these days you will not win on a consistent basis.
