AHFS details

Jeff Teuton · 08-13-2009, 08:55 PM

Bobby, there is not enough room on the hard drive to list all your mistakes. Let's start with No A100-2 and of course you remember Z308-90. That one was really bad. And this system sucks bad enough without the surprises. One thing I have never understood about stuff like this. It would be easier, much better for customer relations, and cheaper to just let it be. Am I missing something here? Maybe huh?

I am so confused

Yes Jeff,
You are missing something! They don't give a hoot about Sportsman customer relations.

Me too! The AHFS rule is so vague that we can all have a different interpretation!! The problem is, our's will be wrong and NHRA's is right! It's like Hideo Nomo pitching to Jorge Posada!!! We need an interpreter!!!!!

Believe me Bruce, I totally understand. I am just greatly dissapointed after the SRAC was formed with a promise of better relations for the Sportsman.

I think we all understand your disappointment Jeff. I think we are all very disappointed. Jim

Disappointed but, sadly, not particularly surprised, Jim. People who have been around long enough have seen so many reversals and backtracks that nothing is really a surprise. Recall the days when sedan deliveries had hydros? Remember the year that Stock was simply wiped out and we all automatically became Super Stockers? I've seen pictures of the Modified Eliminator protest parade but I wasn't in attendance that day. I was at Indy the year that Pro Stock Truck was discontinued. Then, there are a number of smaller things like the recent spark plug adapter system that was reportedly approved in writing before it was disclaimed. Last year it was a Stocker suspension system that had been ignored for years that was deemed to be outside the intent of the rules.

This is a business. The organization owns the business. We get the business.

Jeff, and the SRAC, thanks for trying.

Cheers,

Chuck, I don't see any of management at NHRA with shares of Stock. I also don't see any of them with their own money invested. How can the management own NHRA, a non profit corporation, that's supposed to be doing things to benefit the members of the organization. They had an opportunity with the SRAC to be more inclusive and racer friendly and chose not to do that. Are they violating their non profit charter by loading the board with members picked by management? Why is their no accountability to the members? Until racers and track owners stand up nothing will ever change. The combination of ignorance and arrogance is especially dangerous.
