Pure demographics, more are aging out than are being replaced. All racing venues are stressed by inflation, insurance costs, land values, etc. Ten years from now the racing scene will change dramatically and NHRA has to stay ahead of the game. Inserting a class occasionally or in the case of Mountain Motor Pro Stock just reviving an old one is not strategic, it?s knee jerk.
