@larry I think it’s cool that there was a program for trucks to drag race I’ve heard that nhra shut the program down when it was 5 races til the season finale in 2001 and nhra didn’t care if the fans liked it or not nhra just shut the program down without telling them

@redracer1985 Yeah, I know that, one of the guys up here in Edmonton owns the grey/blue PS dodge in Top Sportsman (IHRA). But I'm talking how they went from a pro class to a sportsman class. Read some article on Competition Plus... A lot of these guys were doing heavy R&D, fans loved the class, lots of big-name sponsors were about to come in, and the NHRA was like OH BTW YOURE IN COMP ELIMINATOR NOW LOL

I really dig this class... Only problem is that it may as well have been the S10 pro-stock class. If a Dodge held the class record, why didn't it seem competitive in the few races it's in this video?
@MaliciousSRT6 жыл бұрын
All I remember from back then was that the Dakotas weren't as aerodynamic as the S10's due to a wider front fascia and they were asking NHRA to let them narrow it. Not sure if they let them before they killed the class or not.
