Heads Up Runs

Alan Roehrich · 09-08-2008, 08:43 AM

Both of our cars are at least a little slower than the fastest cars in the class. I'm firmly AGAINST any changes of this sort. If you are slow, work on your car. If you've honestly done all there is to do to your car, and it just won't go any faster, then write to NHRA, to Wesley Roberson or Bob Lang, for a HP reduction. If you prove your case, they WILL LISTEN. Asking for a rule change like you are suggesting is NOT the thing to do. Stock Eliminator is NOT a class for everyone, and not everyone will be successful.

Why are you guys always beating up on yourselves and causing such turmoil in the Stocker ranks. There is always some kind of post and it NEVER leads to any good and/or argreeable answer. So how about this; everyone runs all out in qualifying. No worry about being refactured. If you run over during eliminations ( you can always post a quicker time if the weather changes) you're out. That goes for either the L or R lane or both. No more sandbagging, pedalling or fender racing. If some of the S/SS entries on Pinks All Out can do it to qualify then why not everyone else
