The "issues" facing S/SS racing (IMHO) have far more to do with the "elitist snobs" who want to keep changing the "rules" to benefit themselves and the people who are letting them get away with it.

And "hating" is a pretty strong word. You don't know me THAT well.

Apparently, you know people trying to change rules to suit themselves that I haven't met and don't know. There are a few I ain't met, and don't necessarily care to. And there are some of those who cheated, got caught, and got their cheating legalized. They're not "elitist snobs", they just cheated and got away with it. That ain't about money, other than they found someone willing to pay them to work that hard at cheating, and risk the consequences. Yeah, they screwed things up for everyone else. Hell, some of them ain't even in business anymore, some may not even be above ground. But I'd say it was more about them getting money from people who don't do their own work than it was about having money of their own.



Yeah, NHRA is a problem. And we ain't gonna change it too easy.


Yeah, I'm from the group who thinks that aftermarket parts were mostly a very bad idea, porting and polishing should never have been allowed in Super Stock, Modified cars shouldn't have been in Super Stock, etc. Highest compliment I've ever been paid was from an old school legend who told my wife that "me and him, we cave men, we old school, we from when you raced and you worked on your stuff, we went fast that way."



Like I said, further up in this thread, for most of this stuff, the genie is out of the bottle, and ain't no one here gonna get it back in. The best we can do is try to advocate for common sense within what we have now. Cryin about what happened won't stop it from gettin worse, and it won't make it better.


I never claimed to know you well, at all. You can call it whatever you like. Whatever you want to call it, it ain't got nuthin to do with what I was talkin about in that post. Or any other post I made in this thread. Like I said, carry on.
