Dave, that's just calling a spade a spade. 9.87@125 is rediculous. If that was all out and the mph reflected it, that would be one thing. Hey NHRA, thanks for legalizing a super stock/modified motor

You can't fault the driver for protecting his combo. Doug is a good guy, and did what he needed to do.

Well said! You gave it a good run, and when you just do it, anything can happen...

The Drap Pak Challengers arent going to win all of their races...

But now we will have to wait until Monday for the the rest of the story, as it has been postponed by the rain.

That's a pretty bold statement. Are you sure you want to go out on a limb like that? LOL. Nobody wins all their races in a dial-in format.

What percentage of heads-up races do you think the new DPs will win? As long as they don't break, red light or have to run a new Mustang, I bet they will win at least 95% of their heads-up races.

Toby given that criteria with a word change or so I'll bet you could describe 50% of the cars in stock or superstock.
Sort of like if nobody was quicker than you, you would always be number 1 qualifier.

OK, how about this: I bet the DPs will win at least 90% of their heads-up races and the new Mustangs will win at least 95% of their heads-up races.

Anybody want any of that action?
