I always thought it was weird to have basically the same classes in Comp and SS. I guess that is good for the racer with these cars. To me, the non-OEM scoop cars LOOK more like a Comp car than a SS. I think Comp Eliminator's problem is the Pro Stock costs in a Sportsmen class.

NHRA doesn't promote the Sportsmen classes at all with the "All about the Nitro" philosophy with their TV coverage. Let's see, it's raining so let's go talk to a nitro driver rather than show anything from the previous day. Even Pro Stock gets short changed in the coverage. They should look at other classes to entertain the spectators instead of hiring idiots to shoot T-shirts into the crowd on Sundays.
