Play staging games and that happens.

But hey, the Chipmonk finally got her win.

Seems to me that every time AJ plays that staging game, it costs him. Pity. But the bright side of that is Erica Enders beat Greg for her 1st win, and hopefully that drives Greg nuts for awhile.

Yep, AJ needs to learn to leave when he stages first. When he stages first he must have a conversation with himself and then duh !

.*%^#!%#$@* .091 light! It never ceases to amaze me! Maybe it's time for a hired driver..........

Kudos to Enders, she took out the BEST racer/team in Pro Stock .

If you race, it WILL happen to you. Even the best drivers out there lose their focus and are late (or red) occasionally. The 1320go website has been a real eye opener for me. It seems like you always here about so and so going .000, but no one ever tells you about their .08x or their .119 light. And the difference between a .020 light and a .091 light is less than a eye blink. Just my

First I am an A.J. fan, but more than that a Mopar man. That team can find more ways to step on there you know what and as a pro team that is not acceptable. How many races did D. A. win with a slower car ? How many times did Wayne Co. Screw up on the car set up. How many .09 lights has Vince or Jeg had this year. If you read the NHRA driver blogs you know about Sanibel. Maybe last years old car set up for bracket racing would be a better way to spend off time. Seat time Seat time Seat Time. Can't beleive Connley could run a .60 and were .61 not that it would have mattered.

I wish AJ can just get over having to always be the last one in and work on being the first one in..... If he can get past that stubbornness, maybe he'll go more rounds?

Bright side definitely....Erica's first win and I couldn't think of anyone else I would rather have seen that win against!!

Yep - seems bench racers know it all. Wonder how many could even get a prostock car down the track - let alone cut a light with one. I know I couldn't nor would I want to try.

Between the long clean-up delay at the start of the race, then a rain delay, and then an engine change between rounds I am surprised they still went up there and ran another great number. I remember the old days when the Mopar racers had one good engine and when it broke they really slowed down. Keep up the great work Roy and Allen.
Now for my only GRIPE. Why do you insist on being the last one to stage your car? Everyone knows your game so why not change up your pattern and surprise the heck out of your fans and the other racers. They played your game back when you guys were slower but now that your qualifying #1 it will be a different story.


1970 Duster
Edelbrock headed 408
5.984@112.52
422 Indy headed small block
5.982@112.56 mph
9.38@138.67

From my understanding courtesy staging is in place and besides not double bulbing I also thought that meant for the slowest car to always completely stage first ---- I know i read it somewhere but just can't remember where so if he is the fastest car he should stage last but if he is the slower car he should stage first.


However I could be totally wrong

Please don't take this as a knock on Allen but he has almost always staged last even back when they were one of the slower cars. My understanding of courtesy staging is prestage, prestage, no double bulbing.

NO CRAP!!

AJ is a damn good racer, and his track record proves it. There is so many things to do in a pro stock car I know I wouldnt be able t o get one off the line let alone fired up and rolling.

Pretty ballsy statement to say AJ needs to go. He has taken down the BIG boys a number of times this year. Just watch, He will have a great weekend next race and everyone on here will be praising him like a mopar idol piece.

Im a fan regardless if he wins or loses, Hes a good guy, and a true racer. Brass tacks man and those HEMIS make the pony!!
