New Multi-Car Nitro Team???

[T.Smith]

With a seldom talked about NHRA rule that only multi car teams can park parts/machine shop trailers in their pits in 2008

Wow!!...who the f**k agreed to that?

 

[.]

Certainly I would love to see Cory and/or Mike Green win a championship, but I won't bet on AJ sharing tune-up info anymore. It would come back to bite.

My guess is Cory Mac to DSR with Alan Johnson tuning both top fuelers.

DSR already owns Cory Mac's equipment anyway, and Cory Mac has put the equipment he does own up for sale (hospitality trailer).

Chris,

Like others have said it's already happening. This was a done deal about two months ago. And from memory of reading the first link in this thread, it's a F/C team joining up with a TF team or the other way around, that's how I read it anyway

Regards,

Mike

- Do you really think NHRA asked teams for approval? There is probably some NHRA twisted logic on how this will allow single teams to attract more sponsorships -
Virgil's question on whether this rule will be changed or if there will be "exceptions" is certainly interesting.

As noted in the second to last National Dragster of the year, Cory Mac will race for DSR with Mike Green tuning the car. This should be Cory's best shot at the championship since the late 90's.

Wow ... I was asleep at the switch on this one.

I don't get National Dragster, but I am sure it was at NHRA.com.


OK ... new guess ... Toliver to join Kalitta racing ... they both run the Toyota bodies and should share data ...

Chris,
I think that you will find that the hospitality unit actually belongs to either the Carrier brothers or Scott Griffin, depending on the final outcome of that entire team ownership debacle.

Could it be FORCE/TASCA ???

 

[mick]

DPM & Bob V.

Could it be FORCE/TASCA ???

Now that's a good guess!!! I didn't think of that one but it would make sense to me!

That would be logical but Force already has his 4 team allocation filled out.

[Gutter Brain]

Keith, that was my first thought too. But, if Tasca wasn't really "owned" by JFR, would that be outside that rule?

 

[MM]

That would be logical but Force already has his 4 team allocation filled out.

Roo

plus this is supposed to be a "surprise" and i dont know that Tasca to Force would really be a surprise

Hey, Connie Kalitta still has room for one more under current NHRA law!

Garlits is running a fueler under the Kalitta umbrella?????

d'kid
happy new years people

 

[BaldyLochs]

LOL. Hey Karl, who knows; whoulda' thunk Connie would ever wear a crew shirt with the word "Muldowney" on it over 20 plus years later ???

You got that right, I was there at the Southern Nationals in '89 when the AJC reported it. It was quite a "weird look" but something really great came of it. Shirley ended up in the 4 Second Club, went to 3 finals and won her last national event that year. Action should have made that collectible!

My guess is Gilby is going to end up somewhere.

no news yet????????

 

[Dago]

I'll go with the Force/Tasca allignment due to the Ford connection with both teams.
