Default Re: If an advocate could be found - what would you say?

all this is really about is a few old men who are no longer competitive, that think they are entitled to compete at the national events of their choice despite not supporting the LODRS, putting the work in and accumulating the grade points required to enter that want their voice aka complaints heard and acted upon. Good luck, it ain't going to happen nor should it. The system in place works just fine.

A racer accepts the possibility of being torn down when he/she enters an event and shows up to race. It applies to every one of us - no matter how rare tear downs are now days. The potential for being torn down is one of the defining characteristics of Stock and Super Stock.

Bruce you can't be torn down when you haven't raced in 4 of the last 6 seasons.

Does anybody think this guy has contributed anything of value to this thread? He's seems bent on humiliating himself and his son. Never seen anything like this before.

Here's the bottomline line Bruce, you nor anyone else complaining in this and the other threads speaks for NHRA Sportsman racers, least of which me. It should come as no surprise that not 1 TOP 10 points racer in any class, in any division has joined in to support your crusade. No one of any merit cares about your opinion or your plight, you don't race!

It's not about me. I asked for feedback from all racers. No matter where they place in the rankings. And here's the bottom line for you. You don't call the bottom line. You're out here making a mess of this site as you have done many times before. Nothing new from you.

I don't know, ask the competitors in boxing, horse racing and tennis that throw matches?
