Nice Job Kevin. Of course NHRA has that in front of empty stands. A multi million present from the three manufacturers and the many folks who have bought and race these cars; comp dead, pro stock dying, and just don't even accept the new kids. I think everyone took a bath? Always the chance NHRA will do something next year. Old time Match Races maybe. Boots & Coots vs Clay "Meanie" Arnett. Sunday Sunday Sunday

It won't ever be much with out at least 8 cars for each class better yet 16! There were a bunch of cars there that could have run it. Like Patterson Victor Jeff and you can go on and on! Racers are not supporting it. When these cars first came out a lot of racers were crying for this but did not support it. When the $$$s take over its not fun any more! That's the way is has been for a long time. Some things never change.

I would support it if it was like Top Stock used to be. Set Times to run, parking, etc and all the things that go with it. Other than a little deviation in Indy, it's just another class. Do you know when we won the natural class in 2014, NHRA did not even have a trophy for Kevin. And security was busy throwing me off the starting line while Kevin was in the burnout box-wrong credentials. I traveled to Canada, the east coast, the north and other places to race, but I gotta have a little better deal. Did you know a company offered to sponsor a stand alone natural race with I think 8 races, and NHRA turned him down as they wanted this company to sponsor the blown cars also. Tell me how you would play this; your driver is leading the nation in Stock Eliminator, and you can run the FS classes or the X/XX classes. In X/XX you are on the edge each run, comes with the territory. You can sorta massage your rounds in the regular stock. I mean we are just using the present rules which are weak. Maybe you would put your nation leading car on the edge for a trophy (if they don't forget), or work the points system.
