Bogacki DQ - Page 3

Larry why don't you give the guy a break show some "CLASS" for a change. If this was anyone else besides a well known "BRACKET RACER" this thread would've been dead by know. There is a lot more to these post than wrong year model. It goes back to the fact Luke has won more races than some of you have won ROUNDS.
My opinion is that cheating is like the guy that had the delay box in his car that time or the many of you that have run the lite weight pistons and rods. This B.S. about the wrong emblems, seats, etc,etc, etc, is just your whinny ***** trying to cover up the fact you can't drive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Was'nt there a guy on here last year that got thrown out after 3rd rd for not sighning a tech card, after he was told to go make his run then come back and do it. He forgot. That was an honest mistake. It cost him too. but it was'nt intentional.
Some of you "BLOWHARDS could learn a little bit about racing from Luke and he in turn could probably learn a little bit about class racing from the few of you left with a little CLASS.

Hmmmm....doesn't Bogacki work for Huntsville Engines building race motors ???

It's the racers responsibility to put his car in the correct class, if you don't know what the correct class is you can ask, this is why they have tech people working the races. This guys been around a while seems like he'd have some people around him that would know this stuff. Basically yes it's just bracket racing but with a few bothersome specific rules.Moral of the story, know what you got before you go racing. On a side note did anyone happen to notice the pics in ND of him in his dragster? I'm not sure how you get your head in front of the cage when properly belted in....I'm just sayin, Joe

Just goes to show you what a lousy job of tech inspection is being done these days. It should have been caught many moons ago. Not to mention that if your going to race in stock or S/S you should at least know what you are running even if you didnt build it. closer inspections and more tear downs are needed in these classes but dont bank on it happening any time soon.

Chip,

I am going to follow some very good fatherly advice " Never argue with a FOOL because some people may not be able to tell the difference" !!

Tracey Harrington · 08-16-2009, 08:47 AM

Luke is a stand up guy. Racing is his bread and butter. He would not knowingly jeopardize his racing. Ditto Chip!

This is NHRA class racing, you should know what combo your running!! If you don't, then you are knowingly breaking the rules!!

ChevyII · 08-16-2009, 09:22 AM

Come on guys, give it a rest! The guy made a mistake so let it die....

The next time it could be you and everyone will be all over your a**.

Let's move on and talk about something important like how to make racing safer.

Jim went to a national event a few years back and asked a well know offical about putting the car in a class. He got out his rulebook and and said yes you can run it. Go to a divisional race at a different division and is told by a different official that he cant run that class. One of the officials was wrong. Who pays the price, the racer.
