As a tiebreaker in the pool.... How far under will the # 64 car be?
Now THAT would really suck if NHRA cut the stock and or S/S fields or dropped them all together. If they bring in the high dollar ($100,000 +) "BRACKET" cars then I would look for the S/C and S/G fields to be dropped or cut instead. The spectators dont like to see throttle stop cars anyway and NHRA knows this. Its all about the show and spectator interest. Im sure the S/G and S/C guys dont want to hear this over and over but look at the big picture. But then on second thought they wouldnt have tear downs (less tech officials) for the class cars and Im sure NHRA is tired of all the bitching and paper work involved in keeping up with HP factors and engine specs. This is not intended to put down anyones choice of race car. Just my 1/2 cent in thinking.
