Super Class Survey Results...

CBS · 12-16-2010, 03:09 PM

Well the survey results are in.....

and.....

Looks like the majority of the racers that voted did not feel an index change was necessary at this time.....in all 3 classes...

They did feel that the Scotty rule should be removed.......

Lots of interesting discussion on this one.....thanks...

That's great, you got stockers running quicker then S/G and SS running quicker then S/C
and wonder why nobody watches the .90 classes, go figure.
oh well maybe in 2030 !

The speed and et's are not why people do not care to watch the .90 classes.

Time on the stop is the likely problem there, right? And wouldn't that drop along with the indexes? In theory with a 2:1 ratio, dropping 1 second off an index (for example only) would take 2 seconds off everyone's stop.

Not advocating. Just saying.

your an idiot, top fuel and funny car both use timers.

Boy...we have some real smart ones on this one...Maryland must be a real breeding ground for knowledge. I love it when a person calls someone an idiot while showing their true absence of a brain...

I'm glad everything's staying the same, I'm still trying to get my junk to run close to what indexes are already in place....

Its the start and stop with the throttle stops that the spectator dosent care for. The fuel cars use timers for clutch engagement and shift points. The fuel car driver just stabs the throttle and hangs on. Even the parachutes are on a timer.

Timers and Stops , MPH ( lack of ) has nothing to do with no people in th stands. These National events are all about the advertised show. We are the filler. How many people come out watch a bracket race. What needs to happen is the purse needs to increase SOON or their will be know filler
