"Live" from the Classracer Nationals

[Frank Castros]

My opinion is that the racers give back (support) to someone (YO' KEN) that has provided so much to them.
Ken Miele is the most prominent advocate of class and drag racing period!

Those who fail to study history are doomed to repeat it.
Wake up people.

Congrats to all that raced. We wish we could have been there. Fuel prices and my poor planning kept us away.

I would have been there myself but health issues withe my wife starting chemo yesterday and I tested positive for covid on top of that.
It's a great race where the racers are celebrated with various prizes as well as excellent payouts! Stay the course, timing wise Covid and then fuel price hikes really altered a lot of peoples schedules

True racers & true friends should need not to explain themselves as to why they did not attend! Anyone asking for reasons, is not someone you need to associate with!

Did Super Stock Race? Qualifying sheet and/or who won

I didn't see where anyone was asked to explain himself. I offered an explanation since Ken works his backside off to give class racers a place to race and feel valued.

Everyone seems to complain ad infinitum about NHRA's treatment of class racers and the lack of payout. Ken did something about it, and has for several years. What's his reward? Look at the car count today. Beside Ken and other's commitment, what about the sponsors?

I gave my explanation upon free will. My only thought was about how much time and effort he continues to put into providing a fun, competitive event, and I didn't show up. It was the least I could do.

SS ran down to 1 car left and there were 2 Stockers left. They were then combined with the lone Super Stock losing in the semi against Bubba that's why there was 2 Stockers in the lone final.

My youngest daughter and Bubba's nephew have been battling all night on the Portatree practice tree. The future is bright!
