If you made indy a all run feild, would be the only way I for one could qualify. But in no way should it be! If that was the case then it would be like just a nother IHRA meet. Not that i have any problem with IHRA. But any one can run! You would take away the whole meaning of indy if it was a all run feild! I do agree with Jack thoe! it SHOULD be a class winners, and then fastest!!!!!!!!!!!!lets try not to compleatley forget about tradition!

It IS the only correct option!
(That is unless you're one of the CJs or DPs that didn't win class! But what the hell, bump out those old pieces of s**t!)
Amen Billy! Amen!!!! Jim

Not necesarily, Chip. I know a few really good bracket/.90 racers that tried Stock/SS, and failed. One friend wouldn't even try it, because "it sounded too hard and complicated". It may be similar, but also has a world of differences. Like Lee said, and so true, "Class Racing isn't for everyone". Thankfully, both exist and each has their option.

Be sure to vote in the NEW poll!

BTW,I know you can't run with Bob Shaw so class isn't looking too good,and once all of the new cars are completed,I believe you are a DNQ just like me!

I agree Billy but I think it should go one step farther. Only Class Winners. Then we could see some real racing. I guess I started doing this a long time ago when it was a lot more fun. Oh well I can dream.

Mr Wright, that would probably make for the quickest way to even out the soft HP combos...if all Nationals were Class Winners only. However, I guarantee the big ego, big money guys (and cars) would never go for it.

IF money were no object,what could you do to run with him in your current car?
Didn't he run something like 13.00 in U/SA?

Of course I'd still keep my car.I'm a diehard AMC guy.I'd just shoot his tires out at the 1/8th.

Hey 442 Olds, Bob Shaw ran a low 13 something at like at 91 MPH. That really equates to around a 14.30 at that speed. You do the math!

U/SA letting out can you say
