Stock entries at Indy
As I am typing this at 6:30PM Eastern time, there are 115 entries in Stock at Indy. Tomorrow it goes to Grade 6; it is conceivable that Stock will be at the quota of 150 in the next couple of days. Totally insane.

Re: Stock entries at Indy
As of now, Stock is almost full and over a hundred entries left in Super Stock.
That seems strange, any reason? |

Re: Stock entries at Indy
Its not rocket science guys, its pretty simple.
Make a copy of the stk list when it fills up and then compare it to when it closes the Monday before the event. On average 25%-40% of the original entry's are not on the final sheet when an event fills at a grade 6 or above. Some racers are holding spots for other racers/friends with 1-5 grade points. NHRA really doesn't care about this, because when the event fills up it's creating a demand for more grade points. Which intern makes racers attend 7-8 points meets or national opens (if they can't find someone to hold a spot for them). Its a win for NHRA and a loss for the racer with 1-5 grade points trying to play by the rules.

Re: Stock entries at Indy
Ridiculous!, Biggest race of the year. Put the quota back to 180 where it belongs! Was that way for many years and worked out great. I think NHRA is trying to keep the Toyota entries down LOL.
