Default Re: Lack of NHRA support for Sportsman @ INDY

Personally I always look forward to watching Stock/SuperStock class go down. I think that could be promoted and I think people would really enjoy it if they knew about it.

The rest of the show, how you qualify, dial in, eliminator, etc. people just aren't interested in.

A casual fan will never understand how a 13 second truck is the #1 qualifier when there are 8 second cars in the class. And how that 13 second truck and beat an 8 second car in eliminations.

I'm not knocking it, just giving a bit of a different perspective as someone that didn't grow up around this type of racing. I love it, but I can see why it's not popular.

I've given up trying to explain Comp to my friends and family. I get confused trying to explain it.
