Why should the NHRA give them another place to race?
By doing so, they have turned the NHRA races into nothing more than IHRA Bracket series.

Ya know, this D-2 1/8 mile N.O. series has no more to do with NHRA races than the local S/SS Association does. OTHER THAN a place to get a grade point without traveling great distances. Most of the local associations welcome NHRA, IHRA and even NSS cars. What's the problem? There's no Tech to speak of anyway. It's a bracket race, period, with a chance to get a grade point. I'm quite sure that the organizers of the local S/SS events WISH that they could offer their participants a grade point for participating!
Now, ya want to talk about the ridiculous expense of racing? Ya want to talk about "entry level"? Ya want to talk about what to do with the "crate motor" cars? Get someone to come up with a viable "heads-up" eliminator using minimum weights and "crate motors" where the final 4 cars can be "claimed" at the end of the day. But that will never happen.
Or just race good junk like I do and stop complaining.
