Competition National Dragster / NHRDA

[DHRA]

Hey Fletch in your sig. you claim the NHRDA is "(an NHRA sanctioned organization)" I am just curious why NHRA is not aware of this.

Maybe someone from NHRA could verify this cause I am sure not going to take COMPS word for it. :-laf

Sometimes a pig's grunt is mistaken for a squeal, as Fletcher would say. :-laf

They are also a DHRA track and currently running our program. Oo.

You make it sound like they have converted the track to a DHRA track, when in reality its more like a bowling club meeting once a month at a local bowling ally; this might put things in to perspective. I have raced at most of these tracks and the NHRA program at each is about 100 times as big, its great that you have a little get together at a major track once a month along with a few others that same night , kind of like when you book a birthday party for you kids at Chuckey Cheese , you are just one little corner of the big picture.



I would have stayed out of this, but I also was on the same conference call with senor NHRA officials and they are making a place in NHRA for diesels, and have there arms wide open. The NHRDA is under the NHRA’s rules, and track system, you want to try and discredit them, you might look in you on dealings , I would venture to say there member ship of the NHRDA is now getting close to or bigger then the DHRA , people are sick and tired of conflicts of interest . And I know NEAL ,





Still waiting for that process server lol or do I need to send you the five dollars to file

people are sick and tired of conflicts of interest

Man, I am getting REALLY sick of hearing this. What conflict of interest are you speaking of? Name me a racing organization that wasn't started by people interested in it? Name one! What reason would someone totally unrelated to something have to do it? The NhRDA is being run by people that race in it too is it not? PLEASE for the sake of our sport stop all this bickering garbage!! It's tearing the sport apart and is ridiculous. There is no need to talk another organization (or another racer for that matter) down to prop up the one you support!! I want to see EVERYONE involved in diesel drag racing succeed and I don't care if it's Joe farmer taking his farm truck to the local grudge match, someone getting more serious and racing at NhRDA or DHRA events, or Comp/Bentz/Scheids/Edge taking it to the next level including going to IHRA and NHRA events. Enough is enough - I can't stand by and watch this garbage any more.

I am not trying to start anything ... trust me I am not looking for a war ...



All I know is that I have been out at Moroso ... I have talked to several of the DHRA guys and they really didn’t have many nice things to say about the organization... ... . I will not sling mud... . I will not call names... I will not say well "he said”... .



I won’t be a part of anything that I have never heard anything positive about. I just want to have fun making my 7k pound sports truck go fast Oo.

 

[Twisted Shifter]

Fletch ... . I need to call you Monday ... . Spoke with the Editor of a National Truck Magazine today ..... He wants to do an artical on the NHRDA ... ... Oo.

 

[COMP461]

I didn't ask how NHRDA is doing. (I can see that it's doing just fine) You are good at twisting things around so as to avoid the question that was raised. I guess you are also quick to forget that in Denver last year I ran a 11. 07 @ 124. 4mph. and it has also ran a 10. 61, and a 10. 59. And yes the injectors are working just fine.

are these real time with time slips , are are you on the same page as the others , and we don't count correction factors.

There's never been slips, just videos of high 11 runs... ...

 

[ASBlack]

Actually, you probably meant to say video of low 11 runs. :-{} I have a video of his low 11 run at Bandimere last July 04. I know I saw a video somewhere of his 10. 59 run too, I just don't personally have it.

I tried deleting some of the junk out of this thread, but it's just easier to lock the whole thing.
