Default Re: Showroom Stock why not?

Just call it bracket 1,2,3.

However most young guys/girls aren't interested in bracket racing. New spectators to the sport really don't understand or like bracket racing.

Everyone generally prefers heads up, beating the other guy in the lane. That's what you see on test and tunes and you see more spectators in the stands on those nights also.

Problem is heads up is expensive and the more rules that are added the more expensive it gets. Even the crate motor cars are becoming humongously expensive. Why because speed cost money how fast do you want to go? Not uncommon to be spending thousands of dollars on bolts to lessen the polar moment of inertia.

Want more people and new blood? Put on what the kids are into. Current fad is small tire and grudge racing. Have to always be changing with the times not trying to rekindle old flames. Those things worked at the time not because they were designed that way but due to a perfect storm.

Perhaps there will be a lot of draw in your area for this and it will work. In my area it's battling of the area codes at a local track 2-3x a year on who's the quickest with an instant green start.
