Has anyone looked at the purses at Norwalk, I hope someday I can live close to that track!

Moroso has a good payout, but nothing like Norwalk's!
This is just another way at looking at why, as NHRA racers are getting snowed about their purses. $140 entry to win $1000, what's wrong with the picture?

76 Racer, I broke it at the Gators, It will be running again in about a month. Schubeck lifters make a mess when they brake.

Ven302: No, just a mistake in the water, costly mistake! Trying to push the car a little too hard to get to .5 under and it pushed back. Floated the motor and it broke 2 Schubeck lifters, I thought and was hoping it was just a broken rocker arm. Block needs to get bored or replaced, pistons coated, new cam and maybe get the thing to go .5 under without having to run the crap out of it. Sent an email to NHRA requesting that they look at the 1969 chevy 302 for refactoring, what the hell, they took 51 hp from the 327.
