    I can't wait to see how much drama my car causes. I'm sure they'll toss it into the "big dog" or "outlaw" or whatever class they call it for cars that are "too fast" to be a street car. Too fast to be a street car, but I took a 1200+ mile roadtrip in it last summer lol.

    The first time I went to FLD in my current car, I hadn't been there in forever, so I signed up for the Tuner class. I was quickly kicked the f-out and everyone was upset that I'd even sign up for it. I had zero idea what the hell was going on LOL

    Everyone wants to race me "on the motor". Wtf. I built a nitrous car so I could run pump gas all the time and add half a can of Torco when I spray it. I could probably get away with 89 on the motor alone.

    When they say they wanna race me without the spray, I ask them to unbolt their supercharger/turbo.

    I was there that day. I wasn't upset at all, I just said "well shit... Im not winning today", which I really didn't think I would anyhow, but there were a bunch of other retards there that day (one was driving an altima or maxima with the front end all busted up) that did pitch a fit.

    I couldn't get anyone to race me that day until the end. This was back when they did the pink slip thing, which I thought was cool, but I was literally standing there waving it at people trying to catch races and because I beat some other cars early in the day, it was like I had the plague or something.

    I ended up winning the tuner class that day. I had to race an evo, sti, and supra to win, but it was an overall fun day for me.

    I agee with you guys, to many cry babies out there. This should be fun to go to and run. The world is getting messed up when the fastest cars don't win, they get moved to another class.

    Have you noticed that the flds guy haven't been back. They don't care if it gets fixed as long as people show up and have the entry fee. Same thing goes for people that cheat, they will just let it go as long as they get money.

    Ruthless with all your complaining about the gutted out tube frame cars sounds like you're doing some whining yourself.

    I think he just wants to know why some people have to go by rules and others are exempt from them. Good question too.

    If I had to guess, it is probably because said purpose built drag cars draw crowds in.... which is money for the event.

    I dont see why they dont. Keep the classes, but run what you brung. The rules in regards to what is allowed to race don't really seem to make any difference imo
