Consolidating Classes
 

Opinions on consolidating classes...? (see poll)

Re: Consolidating Classes
 

Didn't see consolidating fwd with rwd?

Just kidding.

Enough with the pushing for changes. Hasn't there been enough done to Stock over the past few years? Seems like some won't be satisfied until S and SS become strictly Bracket 1 and Bracket 2. Stock and Super Stock were perfectly fine save for a few little tweaks and some of the most recent changes aren't exactly beneficial to their future.
It's almost like some have forgotten what these classes stand for and how they're supposed to challenge each competitor to gain as much performance as possible within the rules already established. Instead we get "indexes are too soft", "you fast guys must be cheating" cuz instead of working on your own stuff you're on the computer pushing for changes and bashing those that do work on theirs or you got caught cheating so now NHRA must change the rules to allow you to keep those expense yet illegal parts.
Just leave things alone!

How about "both of the above" and stopping at 16lbs/FHP? I personally would like for this to happen but then the U/SA mafia would probably put a contract out on me. TT

Hey Michael,this poll is for IHRA correct?You do most of your racing for that organization.

Re: Consolidating Classes
 

Tom, How about instead, go down to about 24 lbs per,V-8's allowed, and then make it class winners only in the eliminator?
You 'll see those lower classes fill up in a hurry then...

Ed - Why are you "just kidding"? If you're going to discuss consolidation, combining FWD and RWD should definitely be on the table. (BTW, my vote was to leave it alone).
