Bruce, I assume you are talking about a National Champ in A/S, B/S etc. I like that, but based on Class wins, class rounds, etc.? And why? I like heads up racing.

Jeff, we were running heads up before and I wonder if this series does much for class racing. I can see it saving money for nhra and sponsors. But what does it do for the majority of class racers who can't get to 4 National events with class eliminations?

4 can be a hardship. What are you proposing?

Its real simple
Do away with the class combo. NHRA can never get it right, the ladders are always a cluster **$k and wrong 80% of the time. Give all singles a trophy. There's no money at all but 4 class races so whats the big deal. Fastest Car on the grounds gets the bonus point weather its a single class or a class with 20 cars. As far as number of races that count for points 4 of 6 is about right. You should haft to travel to win this award. Actually have a real championship trophy that is not a joke. Actually tell sponsors they haft to pay the class champion $500. when I won both years. The sponsors had no idea what this program was, other then Comp Cams. This is a great program for STK/SS racers but no one at NHRA seams to care about it.

I believe NHRA's cost for little class win trophys is less the $75 each. I know racers can by extra ones for around $150 each.

If NHRA makes "class" a race within a race AHFS would not apply. Something to think about.
