NMCA Good OR BAD ?

Larry Hill · 04-27-2009, 12:24 PM

Has anyone raced with the NMCA that has an IHRA / NHRA stocker or super stocker? How well were you treated?

Thanks, Larry

What did the stick racers (Ronnie Sox, Dyno Don, Strickler, etc. do) before all that electronic crap was ever invented?

Go to a NMRA event 90% of our heads-up racers are stick and do not use a 2-step. Sorry you feel that way. I'm a stick racer myself and do not use a 2-step. Sorry we can't make everyone happy but we try.
