I don't understand what you mean by killed the car count? Racing against the national record is the way it started. In some cases you ran class first, than the winners ran it off. All those 60s and 70s cars everyone has been showing have no shoe polish on the windows. Racing against someone with more money in their car in my opinion is the same as racing someone that can afford to travel all over the country racing at every national event. How much does that cost? Mark Faul said in a recent article that he needs to win 50k to break even. Thats a lot of money to me. I feel the fast guys should be rewarded for the work and money they invest in their cars for running them the way a performanced based class should be run. All out, for the guys that don't want to theres bracket racing.
