MUSCRATE LOVE

I just wanted to drop a note and say I really have enjoyed the Project Muscrate articles by Jay Roeder. They’re very easy to follow and for us diehard stock suspension racers, very informative. I race a Fox-bodied Mustang and have followed some of his advice and it worked. Keep up the good work !!!

KEEPING THEM SAFE

Kudos to Kenny Nowling and the ADRL for making head & neck restraints mandatory. Too many that have been lost might still be here if rules like these had been in place for the last five years. Certainly the “professional” organizations will follow suit. They damn well should at least!

JUST WONDERING

Just wondering, why NHRA won't just give all the racers a HANS device to prevent the racers they say they are caring for and putting on races for to preven further injury to thoes drivers.  Just out of the beer money as well as others they make money off of.
As a specator I would be willing to chip in a extra few dollers towards the cause, because we the specators do really care.

WISH I WAS THERE

Great article!  After all I have read I wish I could have witnessed the Dragstock event.  Having been around drag racing for quite a while, one thing curbs my enthusiasm about ADRL being on to something big.  They might be and that could be the problem.  Next comes money on top of more money with more people trying to spend money to win and only the rich survive.  That is the history of drag racing and it could repeat itself here.  In the meantime, though, I guess we just enjoy.
