You got that right Joe! We have to remember the woke racers need help. Once you start trying to change the rules to suit a few, you end up with a first class **** show! He only beat me because he used a blinder haha, lmao! Well cup cake, you can to if you chose 2. But it’s a safety issue lol

The 6 inch minimum numbers and letters on the front windshield are a blind spot when driving in the pits. NHRA, how are u addressing that dangerous problem?

So the change was made because of a safety issue in the pits ... now a racer is asked to remove the factory decal across the top of his visor ???

How many of us actually drive to and from your trailer with your helmet on????

Something SHADY is going on !!!!!!!!!

Ridiculous HP spreads on the same engine in different years and or body styles and transmission type !! Begging for enhancements and HP reductions for the same engine in a different body I guess its anything goes to DUCK that heads up that so many tout as CLASS RACING ?? Cheers !!
Cheers on that one!

Just speaking for myself. How will removing the blinder affect the racer that has be using it. Will they be late from the hypnotic effect of watching the lights come down or will they red light more for whatever reason?

Of the two Class racers in our county neither one of us requested a rule change.

Both Larry. They will start off being primary late because they wait till the yellow is full on and by the time they figure it out they've let it roll past. When that repeatedly fails they will become frustrated and try to 'meet" it, and then their red. It's a vicious cycle.LOL
Missing the blocker from seeing opponents car moving will bring in all sorts of scenarios.

It appears that someone got their panties wadded up! It doesn't matter!

The reality is that a good driver will adapt and still win, with or without blinders.
