Peter/The Fling never used the word "current" and what is current? last year, 5 years, 10?

Ok so you put Labbous in place of Bogacki, now who of the 12 you cutting for your other 2 picks?

Bottomline is the Fling Panel chose 12 Allstars as they see it. After that it's the people's choice and the racers competing choice.


Current to me means hottest bracket racers right now. I'd take out Scotty and replace him with McCrory, take out Bogacki for Labbous, and take out Pennington for Holloman.
McCory should have come ahead of just about everyone…

He's in a SUV with the entire Costellllo clan, on his way to NC. I'll relay that message through Costelllllo.

I'll bet, he wouldn't agree to replace Scotty, unless Scotty himself suggested it.

Scotty is THE PIONEER.

If you're worth a damn, you won't go down that path.

Scotty is often impersonated but never duplicated.

He's The Pioneer.

McCrory has won more money in his racing career than Bogacki.

If it makes you feel any better, he was on the Fling Panel’s list that didn’t make the cut and he still has a chance if chosen by one of the 24.

Champ is Team Overkill, he will be picked by Donovan Williams or any Williams most likely as Donovan's partner or Gage Burches partner all Team Overkill Motorsports.

I am with Whomp on this, Champs past performances speak for themselves and out weigh many on the list JMO.

Don't you think looking at Bracket Racing in 2022, and an All Star list of current Bracket Racers your son should have been above Bogacki or Scotty? I do.

No, you can not have a race deemed an Allstar race without those 2 guys on it because no where has this Allstar race been referred to as “current” bracket racing ALLSTARS

Lists are extremely hard that's for sure. Like some have mentioned the requirements are hard to come up with. I applaud them for trying to come up with something, but I think some things weren't thought through properly, but it's Pete and Emily's race so they can structure it how they want.

Take this. I certainly think Pete is one of the best overall all time. But I may be wrong and say what you want about he wins whenever he goes, which he does. Are we talking NHRA, top bulb, bottom bulb? Bracket Racing? Besides at Numidia lately, how far back was Atco and the original Winter Series when he won regularly at the Big Bucks level? Has he won the Million? and SFG Race? a OG $50k at Stanton? Same with Luke lately. He's been going to Big Money event's but his hardware has been coming from the NHRA side.

I'm not trying to stir the pot, I just think if your having a "best" list or an "allstar" list their needs to be some guidance on how you are going to come up with it.

Nobody has even mentioned Lane D i c k e n. He's a wrecking ball with multiple $100k wins over the past 3 years.

When we had our DRR Allstar shootout for a Dragster of Choice in Georgia at the end of the year, it was compiled of Big Race Winners and Runner Ups from the season's races across the country. I think that was a true field.

And again... It's their event, and they chose the structure and everyone who's involved should be grateful. Maybe they make adjustments moving forward.

Sl... carry on!

Peter did in fact say it was a list of current allstars in his latest interview about the race.
