While we can appreciate the factory stock plug, I can't say this article does us any favors. I'm not crazy about any writer advocating the demise of any category, period. Who is he to advocate that millions of dollars and cubic hours of effort of folks who's passion is pro stock just "go away" after 2018?
Be careful when you say "dead on, Jon". Maybe in a few years he will be out of love with factory stock and will write an article how you all need to go away and then claim the "fill in the blank: class" is the answer to all of nhra's woes and "what the fans want".

And The Biggest issue I have with the article is this quote: "Never mind the fact that drag racing is about the fans and not the competitors." ....... Completely, 180 degrees, dead wrong for what is in fact supposed to be the true mission of nhra.
