Never been to Indy but hope to some day. I may or may not make the field but I will give my best without excuses. Someday NHRA will figure out the horse power system and everyone will get what they want. Until then it is what it is. By the way Biondo, Fletcher, Richardson, DeFrank and many others are great bracket racers within class racing. Try getting one them heads up and see how fast they go. Maybe class racing is not for everyone. Until we land in Utopia I hope we all live in peace.

Good post,but wait until Class Eliminations are over before you come to the conclusion that there is parity.Some drivers are so good nowadays,that they can take .009 or less at the stripe,so on paper it looks close.I can tell from the qualifying sheet that more than a few cars are still not showing their hand.
