Let the racers pay a small fee and hire Wesley to be independent from NHRA as Tech. He is available. He also makes & implements the rules for EMC. It is set up where He is the final say on Tech.
No reason an independent class couldn't be set up the same way.
There are lots of possibilities. Pro Mod has already opened the gate for classes that are run independent from the mainstream NHRA classes.
With the right set of rules and a good enough show the program could be sold to smaller regional/local tracks. For something like that to work you have to remember it has to have crowd appeal so the track owner can draw spectators. That is a must.!! In today's markets that is a 180 departure from how a lot of local tracks make money. A program like this will not draw enough racers for a track owner to make it profitable by the draw off the racers only.
