For years NHRA has been angling for a way to dump sportsman classes from its national event schedule. We're going to be replaced with jet cars, wheelstanders, frisbee fetching dogs, and overcaffinated teenagers throwing cheap crap into the grandstands. Everytime the schedule gets fouled up, we take it in the neck. Everytime the pros need more paved pit area to set up their dog and pony show, we end up in the mud. The selective elimination of sportsman eliminators at national events is just the beginning. I wish they'd just run us early, finish Saturday night and be done with it. I hoped the IHRA might be an alternetive, but things seem to be fading fast.
