Really? Grab a traditional stocker in a higher class and run a new car heads up.

I'm not suggesting singling FWD cars out for special punishment.

Funny, you're willing to make changes that don't affect you, but unwilling to even consider changes that do.

Alan , you are right , combining these classes would not affet me or the rest of the FWD cars as they did in 2005 when they combined the FWD stick and auto cars to cut down the # of stock classes. NHRA has added 5 new classes since then. I would not propose combining the higher class cars or combining any of the stick and auto classes as they are now. I put that out there to just say , if NHRA needs or really wants to cut down the # of stock classes , then just don't " punish the FWD cars again, find other ways. And yes , I would consider changes that would help the stock class racers and you had some changes if used, that would directly affect you. You also stated "roll the FWD cars into the regular classes". This change would affect me and the other FWD racers ,but don't know how that would affect you. I feel that NHRA cannot roll the FWD cars in fairly in with the RWD cars . I admit I am sticking up for the FWD racers ,as I did and a lot of other FWD racers did,when NHRA was considering combining the FWD cars back in 2005. Did not see many RWD racers doing that. Been NHRA racing since 84 and presently have 3 FWD race cars and have been running FWD since 1995.. Also I am in the process in building a lower class car RWD car , to add to my collection. Can you say ADDICTED. Hope that NHRA will come up with some great ideas for change to keep the Sportsman racing alive and well.
