Fuel Injected Classes were added because FI became a new issue.

Factory Stock cars were added !!
They are so quick they could compete with yesterdays ProStockers.

Classes were added because of a need !

As for easy button everyone looks for it!
That is how S/SS and Class Racing morphed over the decades.

NHRA has made changes to the stock an super stock classes over the years. Most of the changes have been either safety related or changes NHRA made to make it easier for the tech people to check the cars and engines and keep them compliant. There have also been some rule changes to help the older cars with newer parts that have been getting very hard to find. They are also allowing some better parts in the engines to help with reliability which helps with safety and oil down delays an saves the racers money in the long run.
