I didn't start this for a pissing contest,
Build an NHRA car, Why? I live in NC and have 7 or 8 IHRA tracks less than 4 hours from my home.
I just wanted Crate motor's or GT/Stock to be able to cross over.

Ken you surely paid your dues with true Class Cars..and this time you decided to try something else..thats good because now you have tried it and for whatever reason you have you like to continue with what you have..You didn't "pay the price" too build a car that could crossover this time around even though you knew about all this..but now you think it would be nice to be able crossover..hmm..
That rockingham race is that concidered a big IHRA race? I saw 72 on the qualifying sheet..around 40 that could cross over to NHRA among those Fletcher,Bertozzi...so it did probably not conflict with any major NHRA race..so that still leaves the question why not more cars? If it were an NHRA event of any kind on that track i think they would have more cars than that even whitout all these crate's,P/S and GT/S in the mix..wouldn't they?Since IHRA is a friendlier org. it just has to be that the majority dont want a "run whatya brung" bracket race.. I think the answer are pretty obvious..you just dont build an NHRA-type stocker to compete only in IHRA.. it also seems IHRA just want everyone they can get in through the gates..you never end up well if you try to please everybody!
