I have been away for three years and haven't witnessed the catch-all class grouping before and I think it's BS. nhra can not be that hard up that they can't let the racers run for a trophy only if the sponsors don't want to pay for singles. Hell, it's the US Nationals and nhra should try to show even the smallest amount of class for this race. All the racers would have to do is check a box on the tech card if they were willing to run for a trophy if there were no other cars in their class. This outfit pinches the little guys for every penny while leasing corporate jets for charter flights at a cost of 20 times commercial airfare. Some day this will change.


Bruce,can you have Kenny put up a pic of the corvette?
