While I like the heads-up stuff, unless NHRA sweetens the reward for going fast (points and/or improved contingency program) there is no reason to "force" more heads-up competition by combining any classes.

Evan, I'm just doing a little bit of personal fact finding. I agree that NHRA should "sweeten" the rewards no matter what and I'm sorry to have to think that won't happen.
I wouldn't want to see the classes combined for the simple fact that; 1. I think doing that would hurt the stick numbers even more and; 2. If the number of classes were lessened but kept seperate (stick and auto) I think you would probably see a resurgence in the sticks.
Prozac is a wonderful thing.
