So on the other side...I read a lot here that stock is a dying thing..only the old guys are still running it. How do we get younger..how do we save it? Personally I'm fine with it just the way it is. I continue to work and spend to trying to get better and faster...but..I think if you talk to 100 talented bracket racers (sorry I used the "B" word" They will tell you..OK so I'm driving good, I'm dialing good and I lose third or fourth round because I had a heads up I didn't have a prayer to win. Its just food for discussion....

Heads up racing in eliminations is just as, if not more important for most classracers. Its a great feeling to get your car ready for a heads up run during the eliminator, win it, then put it back in bracket mode to run next round. And for those that come out on the losing end, it gives them the drive to make their stuff faster.
Having Stock and Super Stock a heads up in class only would be a slow death to the sport to try to cater to bracket racers to be interested. They arent coming in even if it went to that.
