Exactly... like Stock and Super Stock aren't screwed-up enough. Your suggestions would result in Super Stock and Super Super Stock. The answer has never been making more stuff legal. That ridiculous, insanely costly trend started, years ago, when NHRA blew its chance to be a real sanctioning body and suspend Super Stock racers with illegal ported heads. They could have established themselves as serious about ethical competition, but instead, they just made ported heads legal and costs began to spiral upward. And since those floodgates were opened, we have never looked back. Nowadays, you can practically build an entire Super Gas or Super Comp car for the price of a top-tier Super Stock engine, and I would argue that that fact is exactly why the Super class staging lanes are always full.
