SportsNationals Columbus

I was on the NHRA website and they had an article on there about the Jeg's SportsNationals this weekend. I would like to thank all the folks at Jeg's for sponsoring this race in my back yard. What a great opportunity to race without the pros around. Hopefully there will be tons of spectators, although I have not heard any advertisements on the radio or seen any on TV. The point I want to make about this article is there is NO mention of stock or super stock qualifying listed on Friday, just top drag and top sport. Nothing against these two catagories, but correct me if I am wrong, didn't these classes get started by IHRA? Now they are the featured cars at an NHRA event. What kind of payback is IHRA getting from NHRA for creating these classes, not to mention the pro mods. Stock and super stock disted by NHRA again, no surprise ...
