And I agree with that but different Racers race what they race for different reasons. Not all are necessarily looking for the best combo/class and I have always felt that there needs to be room for them too. Maybe I'm wrong but would it be a good thing for NHRA to exclude these Racers? Gary Hampton comes to mind (no offense Gary!).
At this point in my career (?) it wouldn't bother me much if NHRA did away with every class from L down and the FWD stuff. I'd be racing something. But at what point-in-time does NHRA turn it's back on the average Joe and become a sport/hobby for the elite only?
