I noticed alot of the guys we compete with race after race, year after year are viewing and making other posts but will not vote on the 2 polls. Why is that?
 
These people obviously have there own best interest in mind. Part of the problem. Seems to be a theme in our whole country.
 
Voted

I voted yes to both. I didn't know one needed to post a reply. I thought it said there was a way to see the vote and who voted. Leave Comp Alone
 
wayne hutton I voted yes on both, even though i got a whopping 2 back for my new class (E/A) go figure

Spot on Brandon! Certain people see they got .05 back on a class they run knowing damn well they don't need it and NHRA has this all messed up on their behalf. They won't speak up and say NHRA has their heads up their asses because they lucked out and it benefits them only. It's the new American way. Does not pay to have anything or work hard at something. The more you try and get ahead, someone just takes it away from you to give to someone else. Why work and try to be fast when you will just get a free handout for nothing??!!! The lack of Comp cars is because of two reasons only. The economy and the piss poor payouts NHRA has. It's not because of indexes.
 
Steve, I agree with you 100%...but than I have a turbo car(s) so what the hell do I know, lol!

Spot on Steve! Some that got index back also type a response and then dont have the balls to leave it up and delete it cause they know its BS. You know who you are!

On a side note I ordered a case of KY for all of us that got screwed I know its a little late but who knows whats next. Let me know if youd like a bottle:eek:

Hey guys I don't know if your referring to me, But I never vote when it comes to politicics as I told you Frankie before this whole thing started what you vote on I go along with it no matter wat it is, and why my vote any way when you have 80 to 10 I really don't care about it and yes I did get 5 hundreds back on all my 4 classes but I didn,t ask for it and im surly not gonna say take it away, But if they take it away so be it,A little story I ask NHRA to allow me to 5 a 5 speed in my street roadster with a 6 cylinder because we can run a 8 cylinder A/SR is a 5 speed and B/SR is an automatic and C/SR is a 6cylinder with an automatic why not allow me to run the 6 cylinder with the 5 speed and you adjust the index accordingly, ok write us a letter as per dave mohon Div one, tom Schmitt also wrote a letter NHRA cam back and said no new classes But they just put 3 new automatic classes in E/F/G DA in, any way that's why I don't get involved with the politics I take the good with the bad this time im seeing some good sorry if some of you didn't benefit from this, But again Frankie you know I don't go to the to the track meetings, the on line sugestions, I leave it all up tp you guys and I always go with it, SO DONT BE ALL OVER ME ABOUT VOTING Thank You VINNY
 
NHRA has their heads up their asses

I'm hoping that eventually they'll get their heads far enough up there that they come out of their own throat and see the proverbial light again.

The lack of Comp cars is because of two reasons only. The economy and the piss poor payouts NHRA has. It's not because of indexes.
Pretty much agree Steve, except that I'll ad that some are just getting, or are tired of being dicked around at Nationals and having runs cut too.

My thoughts in red.
 
Vinny,nothing here is personal. many other racers didnt vote that are viewing and these polls are not anything official and in the realm of HNRA's decicisions doesnt really matter at all. Alot of our fellow racers are interested to see our individual opinions because they were not offered a say in things......TAHTS ALL!
Nothing bad happened to the guys with the classes that didnt get index back. They still have what they had.
Something good happened to the guys that their classes did get index back that we all know shouldnt have. doing good for some and nothing for others is what everyone would rather not see. For example, your speak of the creating 3 new classes is the same thing in a different way.
At the end of the day we are all still going to be friends in the pits and enemies from burnout to turnout but UNITY in trying to make things better should always be a positive. You shouldnt abandon it, we want you involved!!!
