Ya and the fact that you think a fuel cell dictates that it is a race car. You got a case of dementia.

I drove mine daily after I sold my diesel truck. It was then sold to a guy in texas, He drove it all the way back to texas with a cell.

Had ac, power steering, subwoofers, etc....

I loved having a cell, other than I never hooked up a fuel gauge.

Show me ONE just ONE known street car around here with a cell that drives daily. Gimme a break...

And about your car coming around my camaro at the track... I'd fuckin hope so. You've had your car um-teen years... probably before I was a twinkle in my dads eye.

The whole "get in where you fit in" thing doesn't work when people try to sandbag and fit in a class they would dominate. It's common sense really. Name one local import car guy that would put their car up next to Zacs or Roberts and ACTUALLY expect to win... Didn't think so

Sooo now they've had to create a class just for them because believe it or not.. they're not fooling me... or the track... or LDELEE

I have no intention on wasting my time in a street tire class, espicially with imports, not that they are slow I know of 2 guys who had civics on here that would run 7's, NA. My whole point is the race car thing. You have no idea. The NMRA class I run in is true street, where we have to make a 30 mile drive and after a 30 minute cool down make 3 quarter mile passes, back to back to back. The point is my car is a 12 to 1 compression motor with an AOD. I drove it to Bowman to run in the Top Dog race, I can run 80mph on the interstate at around 2000 rpm. I would easily drive to your house, idle the whole time I waited on you, and then drive to Dorchester, cool down and race. Not saying the mileage would be the best, but I could do it with my 12 gallon cell and 93 pump gas. Due to the times the car runs I have to have a cage, parachute, and a fuel cell. Believe it or not a fuel cell to NHRA is considered safety equipment. When I started in True Street 12 or so years ago, you were not allowed ET Streets and drag radials were nothing then, the best thing we had were McCrearys or street tires. Mine has tags and is insured all year round, and all my DOT equipment works on the car, and it has a full interior, nothing removed but the center console, and thats cause I didnt want to break it getting in and out the car. Like I said I have no intention on running with street imports, ill leave them to you big guy!

We will be there with REGULAR STREET TIRES ON it. Tagged, insured, and driven on the street. Blazer has had tags and insurance since day one. Has stock gas tank and all. All power options work down to the stereo. Hell I can put cd's in the stock cd player and jam out lol. It has o/d transmission and all.

as far as fuel cell thing or no a/c no interior crap. I guess alot of imports wont race at this event. Fuel cell for one doesnt determine much of anything. I know of several "show trucks" that have fuel cells and they would run slower now than they did bone stock

You have stated this before... you obviously know where your car fits in.

And that is very respectable... My only point is you have no intention to daily drive your car... Thus the modifications you've made...

Not crying sir. I don't really care about entering because some of them will say mine is a racecar. Just trying to level the playing field.

How dense are you... Have you not understood anything I've said? It's the ONE CORE POINT to my whole arguement. IT does matter but you're in denial.
