All the classes should be respected as fellow racers and we all need each racer to keep the sport alive.

I have owned a race car and raced Stock, SST, SC, and currently race SG and I can tell you each is different but all deserve respect with different skill needed. All of the classes is what keeps us all racing and what is being posted about SC dragsters makes me ill.

I know the dragsters take a long time to run and there are a lot of them but we should all respect them. They paid the same entry fee everyone else did and only get one race as compared to Stock and Super Stock getting two races where class is run but you do not hear complaints about that posted here.

I know this is off topic but I feel the need to respond.

Those of you that feel the need go ahead and flame me just like all the classes you do not run yourselves.

That was not a bad comment about super comp, but a reference to another incidence with Charley!

So who won class it is not posted on DRC. I was watching the live broadcast yesterday and just as the class finals was starting I had to turn it off because our dinner guest arrived. By the time I got back to it I could not retrieve it.

Either you stage and accept responsibility for your dial/index or every time it is input incorrectly it is an automatic rerun. One rule should apply all the time.

Why is it so hard to look up at the scoreboards before you stage your car to check your dial? Take responsibility for yourself end of story. Typical liberal America now, blame somebody else because you did not check the board to make sure it was correct yourself.

Well,eliminations started 3 hours late due to track weepage. The first super street car down the track came unglued at the 1000 foot mark but lived to tell about it. The track dryers are out once again. Mother Nature 1....Racers 0.....

Patsy is absolutely correct on this one. Charley has a history of runnng into super comp dragsters on winding pit roads. That Rusty 2211 is one funny guy. I don't know him well but I sure like his sense of humor. He meant no malice towards the Super Comp community....

Everybody's got their own opinion, but damn few of us EVER check the index during a Heads Up run .. Of course we need to on a Dial in, as we are the ones coming up with it ...But NHRA sets the index's .. I side with Charlie
