Not much difference in my opinion.

...only when you start looking at 2 races in 2 days vs 1 race in 3 days, the number of days off work, and the number of rounds need to win the race. If a race takes even 1 less round to win, your percentage chance of winning the race rises dramatically.

If you have 8 cars in SS you get beat in the semis you get 0. What did you expect for only winning 1 rd????????????????????????

And oh, BTW, NHRA's payout structure is the same (compare NHRA Div. 2 and IHRA Div. 2) There is no "semi-finalist" money. It's Win, R/U, and then Rnd Lost. With 8 cars, NHRA semis = $0 ($160 in the hole) and IHRA semis = $0 ($135 in the hole). With 16 cars, NHRA semis = $100 (-$60 in the hole) and IHRA = $80 (-$55 in the hole). Super Stock in NHRA: $1,000 Win, $500 R/U, IHRA: $1,100 Win, $500 R/U. Stock in NHRA: $1,000 Win, $500 R/U, IHRA $1,000 Win, $400 R/U.
Seriously, the math isn't that hard. Car counts: THAT's up to the masses.
