Establishing that the class winner as the fastest qualifier completely removes the red light factor or driver impact on the race. We all know that the fastest car isn't a lock on winning class, but doing it this way takes a lot away from the honor of winning class in my opinion.

I completely agree with your opinion; however if they do away with STK/SS "Class" all together, then the entry #'s for STK & SS will dramatically decrease. For this year and given the current situation/schedule, I believe its the best case scenario. IMHO
