I don't care if sticks have them or not, but I guess we should get ready for the next MOVE..That will be dropping some lower classes and combining Sticks with Auto for a better Show.

If we are in the same class as the sticks next year, I want the 2 step if they have em. If no eletronics have it across the board. They can adjust there light with airgap in the clutch, and rpm. That is the same as saying we can kill .03 with a button. Now Here is the problem with the Bracket races at the local tracks. Now you need a 20K and up heavy car to compete. At my local tracks ATCO, ISLAND, ETOWN. The average heavy car runs 9.80 at 140+ They Deep stage and make the car run a 1.6 + 60 ft and roll like a freight train at the other end. It never spins and the can have almost no roll out. the 11 second bracket car is very outclassed now adays. Super Pro you need a 50K car that can run 180 MPH. There are issues with running NHRA OR IHRA PRO ET. So if the bracket race deal is so great how come more and more guys are coming here. At least you can build a 10 K stocker and race and have a chance. LETS LEAVE THE ELEMINATOR ALONE....
