I've said many times nhra dosn't give a crap about stock &super stock. we are just fill a fill in like everybody knows. the problem is they will let more super gas, super comp, pro-mod, top dragster, top sportsman in & would probably bring in all nostalga cars. they dont care about us. they think we complain to much. they dont even care about pro-stock (the best class they have) they were only spraying & dragging to 1000 ft. i myself haven't raced in two years (been jr. racing with Michael my son) but ive heard all the complaints. the 70s ,80s & 90s were the best of times nhra seemed to care. free t- shirts & products without nhras permission. sorry to see not always fun like it used to be.

How about a fine to NHRA for usafe track preparation! Barton had every right to voice his opinion... mabe someone should have wrecked their car or worse to get their attention .

So counterfeit SFI tags cost $5000, words cost $2500. NHRA should have refunded hi entry, not fined him

And you think they would have done anything differently? You can tell from Barton's recent posts that he is still hot. Think the apology will be the tough part to swallow. Think the starter apologized to all the racers that lost because of the track? You think the Pro Stock guys don't bit.. at the starter when the tracks are always prepped for the fuel cars regardless of what they need? Sure they do, but they make clutch and other changes to compensate. If class racers are going to play by NHRA's rules then they've got to be prepared to do the same.
