4 wide is the answer
 

Why not run Class 4 wide and pay a bonus to win, the HP will then take care of itself or people will never win class.

Actually I was thinking about If they payed something for Number 1 qualifier. Then gave the number one car a pass as far as the afhs was concerned. You might see a lot more people trying to be number 1. And then the afhs could work better with the 2 through whatever cars.
Qualifying number 1 is a joke the way it stands now. You just get punished for a job well done.

Artie,the guys trying to protect their combo would just run the car hard enough to keep away from the trigger.There are the rogues (Fezell comes to mind) that don't seem to care
about the AHFS.But most of the guys into the long run wouldn't fall into that trap.
Just my opinion.

Eddie I was just bringing up the sad point that. You work hard on the car to make it run then you worry about going to fast. Myself included.
And people wonder why we are a dying breed.

Its amazing how these two types of cars have made so many cars worthless. THe only answer to this is do away with heads up runs during eliminations.

I think it would be cool to run class 4 wide! What would be wrong with that? Get class in quicker, less runs on your car and done for the day at the track earlier! I had 7 cars in class at Charlotte! That would have been two rounds instead of 4!! They didn't even get to run the final because of weather! So where's the draw back there???

The problem with a lot of you is you are too stubborn to accept change! I'm sure some of the pros bitched about it because they seemed to have problems staging! But I'm sure they were instructed on how to stage, and some were just too bone headed to pick it up! It was fairly simple if you ask me!

Why don't you ask some of our senior racers that may have raced 4 wide back in the day what they think?? Remember, this is not new. They did it at York and Budds Creek!

Bracket racing 4 wide........don't think you'll ever see that! But who knows.
