if wally was'nt dead this woulda killed him

[Bruce Noland]

Mark,
Don't wear our your welcome????

[Mark Yacavone]

Bruce, Yes, I'm pretty sure Goob is a bracket racer. I think he has said he wouldn't run a class car. Too much hassle/money.
Everybody's welcome here , of course. I just have a problem with non-class racers telling us how we should do things.
Is that what you were asking?

[Jack McCarthy]

bruce... the fiasco was the indexes didnt get lowered like they desperately need...and this new rule was shoved up our *** instead... fiasco seemed like a pretty good choice of words...

and i usually attend at least one other event... but you make my case for my indy farewell tour, if i only attend indy... then it is farewell.

i am just sick of all of this... rules of the week, AHFS, the increased entry fees and suck *** payouts, making phone calls to get what piss poor class money you do win, techmen not allowed to do thier job, one run if the weather aint nice... need i go on ??? you know what i mean i am sure.

i am sure i wont be missed by NHRA, or you, im just a dinosaur which is a pain in thier ***.

Mark,
Don't wear out your welcome seemed so dire.

Jack,

Of course you "would" be missed. Hell, you're a lot of fun to have around. I know you'll pull a Favre on us and be back. I'm not far from getting off this merry-go-round either but have a few races left. This whole world financial "thing" has taken all the fun out of what used to be disposable income.

And a question for those of you who think that nhra would just love to try to get rid of all the Sportsman racers and especially Stock and Super Stock. Ever wonder why they haven't? It's their game! Or so they say!

[RPinoski1]

Did you guys catch the special feature on Marty "the one man party"? The camaras followed him over to John Force and Force was pissed that Marty was getting more TV than him. It's all about the "Big Show" now......
The NHRA continues to make small changes taking sportsman racing where ever the master plan has us going. All-the-while these changes keep the Sportsman fighting amongst themselves not seeing the forest through the trees.....

I honestly thought these commitees were going to put a hold on so many changes so fast. It appears that just the opposite is happening.

Does anyone remember the days of "Pittin on the Pavement" because you ran a Class Car?

[Terry Cain]

Question?
Will this new rule apply to Sports National meets?

[laura Parker]

INDY dam I don't know about the rest of you but I can't wait. It's my favorate race. Hated to miss it last year. I'm not thrilled with all the rule changes and the 300 lbs of lead I have in the trunk but it could be a lot worse. Think about what some of the people in other countries will be doing this labor day. Lets go there and have a good time and enjoy the moment. We know it's not going to last forever. I also wouldn't mind if all class winners that had to beat another car ended up in the field. No matter how far under or over they run. Singles should have to qualify like everone else. Just my 2 cents. We all know before we leave home that you better have your **** together or you will be watching on Sat. Barry

[Larry Hill]

Thank you Barry. Hows come you'all are faster ,but we got 6 and you'all got 5.

We could just be an all run class like Super Comp or gas. Stock eliminator is NOT Bracket racing. It's a step above bracket racing, There is a reason we have Index's.

I think Wally would have been happy to see the Fastest 128 cars running for the money and the WALLY. Not the Fastest 110 cars and then the slow *** class winners. Just my 2 cents..

go fast or go home!!
