nhra info on the FS/X Classes?

Charley I don't see you as a player in the FS classes. The day I settle for less than a fair shot at the sheet will be the day I quit. And as far as taking your advice on anything it will be a very cold day in he**. I love the way you guys sit on top of this corrupt process and tell us to shut up and just take the crap you put out. That ain't gonna happen either. The FS cars are on their way to their own eliminator. Count on it.

Still nobody in the stands watching us at National events. Ditto the new car "shoot outs", Nobody in the stands watching those either. Don't make enough noise, don't run 300 MPH, so nobody cares. We are just filler.

Ed, your memory at Nationals might be a little off or you just assumed no one watches..... The two photos below are from the Factory Showdown at Indy last year. Looks like a good amount a fans for just being filler.

Ken, the round I went up to watch didn't have near that many up there.
When I'm racing, I never look.

Ed, your probably right in the first round or in qualifying, but as it got close to the finals it was nice to see people in the stands.

I went red 4th round this past year. Just watched round 5 before loading up.

They were simply a captive audience. Most of them have never heard of FS.

Are you guys having reading comprehension problems or memory issues? This thread is about FS as in FS/X and FS/XX.
