To quote the aricle:
The possibility of actually running a few IHRA events, using them as test sessions, has been considered but not considered ideal. Tasca also doesn't know if the IHRA could accommodate NHRA racers showing up for their events.
“I don't know what IHRA's position is on it exactly, but it is an option. We would prefer to test with the guys we race with. We would prefer to do a test session with other fuel cars of our class, one it gives a good indication of what they run versus what we run.
Good to know that someone struggling in their first year of an NHRA pro class considers themself to be better than those pesky IHRA racers.

Randy, I'm not sure he meant it in the malicious manner of which you interpreted. I'm guessing there's more to it since you're track record is not indicative of one who promotes negativity.

Sanction probably would've been the better word. I seriously doubt that he meant it in any demeaning way.
Having said that, I've never had a clear cut favorite in the nitro classes. But after growing up hearing stories of the Tasca Ford from my father and uncle, and knowing what those cars meant to them, it's really cool to me to have a new generation of it. I think it might be time for a new t-shirt.
