Six of the nine stock 'class' national events are at the end of the season?!

This is a year late but I thought the main problem was too many single runs getting easy money was causing sponsors to pull out as well as making class elims less enjoyable to watch. So they did away with single runs and made combos, and as sad as I was about that, I knew that it was the right thing to do and a way to make sponsors and spectators who like watching class runs happier. But why did they have to create combos AND pull the money (aside from indy and Jegs nats)? Couldn't they do one or the other? Keep single runs and pull the money, or run the combos and pay the money?

Regardless, it would have been an admirable gesture by NHRA if they could have stepped up to the plate and started offering some money to class winners.

If they don't like singles, stop separating the stick and auto's!

“As times have changed, the changes that were made to the Class Eliminations program last year is what allowed it to continue,” said Scooter Brothers, chairman of the SEMA Board of Directors and chief operating officer, Comp Cams. “It is now a more viable program for the manufacturers and it allows these companies to find a reason to get involved.”

I am glad the "more viable program" allowed these companies to "find" a reason to get involved. I may even "find" a reason to keep doing business with some of the companies that have done the most bi*&hing about contigency payouts. But I doubt it.

At least the points are equal now.

The best thing that could happen is if everybody running an AUTOMATIC switched to a STICK-problem solved. Wouldn't it be cool to see guys like Fletcher, Biondo, DeFrank etc. banging gears...just a thought...lol :cool:
