NO Offense to the speed demons,but I'd say that Most guys prefer to drive their car more than 1/4 mile in a straight line??
I give the guys props for being able to squeeze power out of the car and handle it,but honestly not all of us can afford the luxury of having a **** load of cash sitting on a trailer.
I know I am one of the "busted *** broke/living day to day" guys.Just keeping the car on the road right now is a handful!

There were some (like me) who posted prostreet cars/all out drag cars/ etc... It should be, as in the past, where people can share ideas of "hot rodding" their rotary-powered cars. From fab work, port work, tuning, boost control strategies off and on the strip. Different ideas help in research & development of these cars. The more people share their hardware combinations and results achieved, the less likely day-to-day guys (as u mentioned) will need to test or cross that bridge.

Maybe, but who knows, if new comers start posting, maybe the old school guys will post again; or maybe the new comers will become the new (and improved) generation JK!

I cant say that I will be a new comer, and even if I get to it, it wont be at the same level as the old school guys...

Maybe if there was a 1/4 mile record list for this year for all classes, maybe people would try to post more
