The NHRA is well aware of what's going on and the mistake they did in allowing the larger turbo sizes with the 4cyls in the modified class, they will correct this soon. Just like they made changes last year in mid season or at least we hope so because the rules aren't fair as it stands right now in that class concerning the turbo sizes with the 4cyls, they can make WAY more HP than the other engine combinations right now.

I heard Paul was running twin 55mm this weekend. That would explain his perfomance gain.

Not cool that last year when the starlets from PR where running 7.3's 7.4's NHRA had to check all of them to see if they where all legal. Now that their little rich boys "Paul and Brent' ran quick *** hell Nhra stays with their mouth shut.

You meant 'near' accident.
I guess Ken thought he was on the drift track next door for a second.
Thank god he made it out ok. Ken needs all the luck he can get this time around.
No one deserves it any more than him.

Thank god all he hit and messed up was the wheelie bar more than anything else. When I got there Sunday at 7:30AM he and Tito were finishing up replacing the bar and putting everything back together.
