Well, as a matter of fact, they're not! It's a FWD,RWD thing.
When NHRA redid the FWD thing, I proposed giving the FWD cars a 3lb. break and rolling them into the RWD classes. The numbers worked but the problem became not having low enough weight breaks to merge them in. It only worked for the higher classed FWD stuff. The lower classed FWD stuff(I can say that) couldn't get light enough to fit the existing RWD classes.
I don't have a problem with consolidating some classes but I have to agree with Ron in re. to the FWD stuff, they've paid their dues already.
