[QUOTE=Kenny Wigington;
I dont think you can have a drag race (Nat'l Event) without Stock and SuperStock. [/QUOTE]

This is not a flame but dont kid yourself. Do you REALLY think spectators come to watch stock and S/S? As much as I love them Im afraid they are a dying breed because of reasons stated many times before. IF and thats a very large IF they were to drop catagories and replace them with T/D and T/S I think it would be the .90 classes first. NHRA is looking for a SHOW and something eaiser to police. Stock and S/S is a pain for them to police and keep up with (AHFS, specs, weightm fuel check, etc) The .90 classes are not a show to the general spectator and all of the explainning to them by the announcers about WHY they start, stop, and go again will never change that. The spectators like the heads up races, speeds, the noise, and even the exlposions. Everyone else is just filler.
