NO I'm not in the wrong class, my car likes S--ty air and I work on it to make it the fastest it can be, I belive S-SS used to be a performance class after all , until some wanted to make it a freaking bracket race. No fan wants to come to the biggest race of the year and see your favorite car take a dump at 1000'. Open your eyes NHRA!

It's no secret, the more noise you make, the more attention you get. Friendly emails to the officials, or ask the DD's to carry the message, copy the SRAC guys on what you do. See what response you get both from NHRA and the fellow racers.

Make it easy. All sports nationals no AHFS. That way there's a few so it's not biased 1 coast or the other. Or put in center somewhere.

Great reply, Jeff, I couldn't agree with you more. The fans come out on the days we run for class at Indy, and they want to see us race to the end, heads up. And have you noticed the slowest cars are the biggest complainers.

Yes Jeff, but we are dinosaurs. Now way out numbered by bracket racers.

For those upset at the AHFS,bracket racing,and slow cars........NHRA could always run off of the National Record like it used to be.
