Stock Class at Mile High

KRatcliff · 07-19-2019, 05:56 PM

Can someone explain to me how the first round of Stock for class was going to the car that came in 2nd under their index? It is a staggered start by index and the first one to the finish line is not the winner. Please explain what I am missing.

Never mind. It was something goofed in the NHRA timing system. They had it completely backwards as evidenced by the C/SA heads up and the second round that was posted on DRC.

I'm glad you saw that two. I thought I'd lost my mind!

Seems they are set on breakout racing. I didn't think that was possible..til now.

Same thing happened in the AA/SA race. They had the correct winners show up for the 2nd round it showed, but I am surprised the announcer didn't pay any attention to what was happening.

Run class at divisional events and ”Alla / kazam” no more need for a Low car quota at National Events.. and a good reason to go to divisional events besides “GRADE POINTS “. I don't know but it looks like an idea.. ?

I've said it before: What is the sense of running class with such low quotas and/or car count. Was it meant to be an 'insentive' for entries or just misplaced priorities and $$$?

Agreed 100%,a good place to start would be Brainerd seeing the points meet is a week before the National.NHRA would still get 60 cars at the National regardless.I see your trying to get in,hope you can. gsa612
