The Official Start of Silly Season

Not sure when that will be. Hoping to go until at least 70.
D1 and D3 seem to be the healthiest divisions

I somewhat disagree Mike. There are a few new cars in Florida lately and the SSSA races have been dismal failures for other reasons. Of the last 4-5, 3 races were put on at Orlando during Runday Sunday. They were such CF's the race either didn't get completed or were split/late finishes. The only other race I'm aware of was in Gainesville. It was OK. We didn't attend because we had other commitments. There are usually a pretty healthy turnout of cars at the D2 races, many of which are from our area (Fla and Ga). The norm at most divisional races has stock with the highest car counts by far.

Bam!

I hope you are right Kenny. See ya at the races real soon.

Hope is not a strategy. It is on life support and is dying and like our own deaths, it’s inevitable. In the meantime enjoy it while you can and stop complaining about the NHRA…rules, quotas, class eliminations, payouts, contingency, etc because the NHRA knows you are showing up regardless!
