Plus the tech officials capable of proper enforcement of the rules are waning and many aging out in the not to distant future. I was watching a tape of a past sportsman race where they showed the age of stock/SS active drivers and I bet 80% were over the age of 50. Many younger racers are more into this no prep, twin turbo nonsense than us seasoned racers. Enough rambling.
Drag racing is drag racing g. Should not matter if it's no prep or a twin turbo car. The current glue situation may make you tune for low prep or no prep in the future. No prep is packing the stands so what's wrong with that making a track owner money. Owe I'm 61 and race stock, bracket and heads up no prep. To be honest stock and no prep are equally fun.
