John Holmes, You need to give it a rest. I hope that you are part of the minority of NHRA racers. I know Michael Beard has been in more final rounds than you have been in second rounds. Nobody cares about class winners NHRA tech doesn't even take it seriously. Creeps like you that can run 1.2 under with your SERIOUSLY BOGUS parts that no one cares to police are hilarious. Do you really think people believe you are just that much better at tuning your combo and it is legal? Ever wonder why the hitters qualify at the bottom of the sheet looking for by runs like you?

Herb,
Is the comp. style stock race still on? Looking forward to it if it is.....

Hilary there will be a comp style race at Piedmont next year. I will let the details out when they are available and finalized. I think your dad knows as much as anyone.

Hey herbjr I bought the motor from Mitch Kight's car that ran those crazy numbers in Gainsville, so if johnny boy wants to run we'll be in houston at Nitro Joe's SS combo this weekend going balls to the wall. By the way we've had the motor in the car most of the year, running it pretty mild, it's an Animal. It will be interesting to see how fast it is in some decent weather.

Can't do it at Piedmont...that's an IHRA track and WE have no idea what we're doing!

Maybe we can get one of Bo's old Top Stock engines that were so slow and let him get some of that.

What a joke this holmeless guy is!

Great dialog for the off season though.

Comp style combo race? - I better feed my goat more oats!

It will be done as a fun race added to another event. We are looking at all the qualifing sheets from this past year trying to figure out a good CIC number where its good for everyone. We want it where the driver does play in to the equasion. The good this is no automatic horsepower for showing your *****

John Holmes I will run you whenever you want.

Just when I got to thinking nothing exciting ever happened on this forum I return to find this

Where do I even start?! First I'll tell you that Scott has been racing quite successfully for 22 years now, and only started doing the "class racing" thing a year and a half ago when presented the opportunity. To be quite frank, we expected to meet people with the same attitude that Mr. Holmes has. Turns out, we met A LOT of extremely nice people during the last year and a half with the class racing. Almost every competitior Scott ran approached him prior to the race, introduced themselves, wished him luck and said "Let's go have fun".

Last winter we bought the motor from Tim Sloan that was in Hillarey's car, thus beginning our relationship with Sloan Racing Engines. We were immediately impressed - the motor was very consistent, competative, fast and reliable. But beyond that, we were impressed with the knowledge, helpfullness and at track support we received from not only Tim, but Shelia and Hillarey as well. Not only do we call Sloan Racing Engines our engine builder, but we call them our friends. And us Macy's consider our friends our family (cause our real family sucks, we make our own! - ha ha).

My point - you won't find a nicer engine builder out there. Tim Sloan is the definition of a true Southern Gentleman. Beyond that, he has a passion for drag racing, sure he's in this to make money, but the man loves our sport. How many other engine builders have sponsored the Stock or Super Stock class for the division?

Furthermore - what is up with this "I'm better than you because I run the "prestigious NHRA" series and have a "fast" traditional/"real" stocker" attitude???

First, NHRA treats their racers like a door mat. You never know when your class will get bumped from the program - you're not making them any money! IHRA shows a hell of a lot more appreciation for their racers. Why everyone thinks NHRA is so great is beyond me. And on a side note, the only NHRA tracks we could go to in this area is Bristol and Virginia Motorsports Park, versus the 12 plus IHRA tracks in our area. Didn't Bristol's National event bump the Stock class this year??? So that leaves one track to race at.

Second, you do realize that 99% of the time your just....brace yourself while I use this dirty word....BRACKET RACING! That's right, you're just a nasty old bracket racer like the rest of us dirt bags. And that other 1% of the time our Sloan Racing Engine hasn't failed us yet. I do believe our Sloan Racing engine beat one of those "better" Engine Builders motor that you listed in a heads up competition on our way to our first Ironman win.

Third, so you have a lot more money invested in your "real" stocker than our "fake" one. Good for you, money bags. At the end of the day the purse is still the same. Fact of the matter is, if we had to compete in a traditional stocker then we couldn't afford it, we'd end up running Hot Rod instead. More and more people are in our shoes. Eliminate the use of crate motors in the Stock class and before long your class won't exist.

Bottom line, Sloan Racing Engines is highly respected by ALL of their customers. We highly recommend them and will continue to do business with them. We won the Division 9 Championship, won 3 Ironmen and finished 3rd in the World. We also picked up Stock/Super Stock wins at Piedmont and Roxboro this year. We contribute our success to the help of Sloan Racing Engines.

P.S. - I'd put the $10,000 up for Hillarey to race you if I had it. Unfortuately I'm not made of money like you obviously are. I think Hillarey would win - especially since you probably won't be able to see to get down the track with your two black eyes.

P.S.S - Scott called you a douche bag who probably doesn't even have a real car. He'll take you in a bracket race any time, any place, best two out of three wins. I'm sure you're not interested though as you probably don't have the talent required to bracket race, just the money to heads up race.
