If they are put into their own class then it's what we've been asking for the last two years. Maybe NHRA has finally seen the light with stock car counts constantly dropping. I hope this includes the lower class cars also. Their numbers are growing. My only concern is that they combine stick and auto cars to make room for the new classes which opens another can of worms since so many combo's have different HP. Many think that the auto cars can consistently compete with the stick cars but a three speed auto with a converter which loses HP going through the converter will not outrun a 4 speed stick when all things are equal. I ran a stick for many years way back when just because it was always faster.
