It was a problem in all classes my 60’ was all over the place, it seems this has become the norm in NHRA events this season, we are paying more money for less services

NHRA does not show the stock or SS finals.... did they finish, or did they get hit with weather?

If this DD continues to focus mostly on the schedule instead of having a starter that understands how to keep up the very thing we are there to drive our neat cars down… we are in trouble. Both events so far have had a “schedule first” feel instead of a quality product for the customer.

Jeff, I watched this yesterday. Nice to see these other types of racers discovering Stock and SuperStock

Are the results that far behind, or have they still not yet run the Stock or Super Stock finals?

Kevin, DRC doesn't have a live reporter at divisionals. Results are sent in at the end of the day.
Live Timing wasn't even switched on today, near as I can tell.
Hey, that's a lot of work for just a few Sportsman

I haven't race at nite for a long time. The tree at National Trails sure looked different, is it special lighting ?

Hey guys, not sure I was going to post this video, but what the heck. I have had good luck racing Tony in his COPO in class the last few years, and new things would swing his way. Anyway enjoy my defeat. Watch the complete video for 2 different looks.

From reading the posts I can see many had issues with traction. I was lucky enough that I had no issues, but having said that... I didn't go any rounds so it could have been an issue. I will say the starting line did not look good when I rolled out of the water, I had no confidences that I would hook.

Thanks... I'm just along for the ride on my daughters YT channel. The video has been well received and has a good amount of views. I think class racing is so special and deserves to be shared with those who may not understand it or been exposed to it.

Stockers are way cool....

(super stock is ultra-super cool)
