It is pretty hard to post an opinion or suggestion with out getting caught up between the feuding sides in this thread. I'm out

Yes - why speak up if you disagree with any point of view

Do not support the unpopular on here

This post will likely draw fire even though you probably can't tell what I am saying

Some can not resist antagonizing others

I have tried to stay off this site but I hate unnecessary abuse by the righteous

As Popeye said "that's all I can stands - I can't stands no more"

Especially when they seem like ..... well you know

Now to quote Rodney King "can't we all just get along" and support the new sportsman messiah

Class Racer.com for me is a happy outlet from daily life and all opinions about sportsmen racing are important and respected, however the divisive comments made by some are inappropriate and unnecessary.

Not attempting to be self serving, but this one was put directly in front of me this week. If an event is under quota, why in the 'eff does one have to withdraw by Monday at 3pm est? I realize NHRA might have to absorb the cost of a window sticker that goes unused, but it certainly would be nice to have an extra couple days to watch the weather evolve. Enhance me for $10 if you have too, lmfao.

Clearly, one should be able to enter as well, again, if under quota. I realize NHRA might not have time to produce the credentials package one is issued, but I'd like to think we could find a way to work around that overwhelming obstacle.

Dan, I would be interested in your take on the complaints mentioned in this and the other threads and call for a sportsman advocate. If not wanting to state your position here, feel free to PM me, your comments will remain private.

so if it is about time and space- I think it would be a good idea to let more cars in another class if another does not fill up. Super stock is sometimes light. Why not open S/C or S/G for the amount of cars that another is low.

Same pit space, same track time.

I'm sure there could be a system put in place to do that, and it would be appreciated by racers who are trying to get in.

Ed I'm going to go out on a limb here and suggest some of what I would think would be Dan's concerns. From the point of view from someone that made their living as a professional sportsman racer I would think the fact that he can't earn half of what he did 20 years ago for winning a race would be the top of the list!
