The back page of the 1966 NHRA Rule Book is a section titled "NHRA Eliminator Procedure" that lists "JR. STOCK Eliminator will consist of all class winners from B/S through O/S and B/SA through J/SA." (That's all the classes.)

The 1967 NHRA Rule Book lists only Super Stock Eliminator and Stock Eliminator. That is the first year for multiple Super Stock classes.
Whats in a "Name" . With all of the short shifting , sliding the brakes and tires, pulled back timing, under rated HP factors and dumping at around 1000 ft to save your combo it should be called Bracket One or S/Pro......I bet that will "tune up" some on here.....LOL.
