Hang in there Amanda & Matt. You have it going on buddy..you keep doing what you're doing..and you'll still kick their collective asses! What then?
It's unfair what NHRA did..and everyone on the planet knows it.
Turn your head..then just turn it around again..looking back when they're trying to catch your ass!
And thanks Don for resounding..I certainly don't think the Army team was whining.
Go get 'em Matt !!! All this shows is NHRA's attempt (again) of stifling innovation. A team comes up with any advantage and they feel change needs to be made to keep it equal. But this change came way to quick..which only creates controversy.
Damn..

So with Don S. reply that they did not take part in the complaining, then the question REALLY is who DID the complaining to get this rule changed ????
Don't be so naive enough to believe that NHRA came up with that on there own. Somebody was pushing for it. Once you find out WHO, then you will have the answer as to WHY...................

Do we honestly think that anyone will come on here and say that they were in favor of or complained, or even demanded a rule change??????
I'd love that kind of honesty and to hear their reasons behind it, but I can't imagine anyone doing that.

This is just STUPID!!!!
I feel sorry for ya Matt. Sheeesh... A few good races and you get penalized. I appreciate you and Evan being honest with your feelings in a public forum. Of course I appreciate Don taking the time to respond too. I think that helps us fans get a little perspective rather than just speculating.
I hope NHRA sees how knee-jerk this is and re-thinks it.

Matt,
NHRA News: Smith relishing perch at top of Pro Stock Motorcycle class (5/15/2007)
This was an awesome story about you and your efforts this year, it shows that you truly have what it takes to be a Champion. Just keep your head down and keep doing what you've been doing, complaining about Glendora is just wasting your energies. Use it to fuel your fire, go out and kick their asses anyways.
Best of Luck in Championship persuit.

I can read quite well between the lines on this one! Thanks Evan, you're not only a great resource and support for our sport but you're honest and that's refreshing to say the least.

Now this statement I truly believe!
With all do respect to Don in Corporate America you have to put on the PC suite and we will never really know who complained but there is a lot of truth to what Mr. Knoll just said!
I believe Don's statement, was what he knows, but if somebody under his umbrella said something do you think they would tell him if he asked?
Probably not, which wouldn't be Don's fault, but it still wouldn’t change the fact that they said something.
If NHRA has any creditability left they will rescind the rule change and make it right but I won’t hold my breath!
fake points championship, rule changes at big money sponsors request..... is that Nero I hear tuning up the fiddle.....

For those who asked why the Screaming Eagle bikes were not included in the rule change they have a totally different engine than the Buells. The V & H bikes have overhead camshafts ( as per the street V-rod) while the Buells are based on the old pushrod engine architecture.

Clearly, the NHRA had their head up their asses when making the decision. These stats indicate there is not much of an advantage as one would think after you read NHRA's statement.
