Unhappy Ts/td

Comp Plus is reporting that TS/TD will be coming to our neighborhood in 2010 at "selected" national events.For now probably one race per division.Looks like they'll be slowly pushing out some other sportsman fields.Looks like there might be a lot of expensive bracket/show car/garaged cars in the future.
I can see NHRA looking to freshen up national events.It doesn't look very good for S/SSs future though,
and I think a lot of it has to do with the make up of national event fans.I believe the majority aren't "car" people,more thrill seekers.That's why,for example,the stands empty when the super categories come out.
S/SS is in the same boat.Our cars are older than a large percentage of them.There's no connection.Sure some come over and say they,or someone they know has/had one,but they are far and few between.
Hope I'm wrong but I think we're reliving the extinction of the dinosaurs.
