Dollar for dollar, if I had a choice to watch the current ProStock racing or the HEMI shoot out at Indy, handsdown I would watch the shoot out every time. How many stock and super stock racers do you see going to the lanes to see ProStock racing versus the HEMI's running? Run what you brung, lets see a 7 this year  |
Even though I love both classes tremendously, I disagree for one reason and one reason only. In the hemi shootout, you can count on one finger who is likely going to be in the finals if both cars get traction. When there is 5-6 tenths between #1 and #16, its a bad situation. I really wish it was more competitive than it currently is. I love this class but its definitely sad when you can pick the winner every race with pretty good certainty, well most times. The early rounds with cars that are near each other in ET makes for good racing but as soon as they meet the titans, gameover if both get traction. Thats the only downside from a fan perspective.
