I know, some are going to say that's a normal weekend for a fuel car but this is way worse and not in any particular lane. The idea was to force these guys to take power out. Pretty much ruined the show for the fans and cost racers a lot of money. Next enhancement please...…….

GOOD ! I like that as I am not a fan of nitro cars at all. ! Would it not be safer and simpler to cut down the percentage of nitro, get rid of one fuel pump, cut back on blower boost or blower size. Cut back the engine size over the down time this coming winter to say 426 or 400 cu. inches for the 2019 season? Then they could go back to racing in a real 1320 ft (1/4 mile) again.

It is probably just capitalizing on the popularity of Street Outlaw's "No Prep" racing.
NHRA is just phasing it in.

Looks like we had a few spinners in stock today. I could be wrong I was watching on the internet.
