NHRA Fastest 128 cars

[Dick Butler]

Unfortunately it can make winning class even less important. Yes it makes the paper cars and bogus cars need to run harder to assure qualifying at Indy but..... what about the class where only thrashed, factored cars run? Probably wont happen that much but....
The question is if the elim is top heavy with cars running way under will their runs be enough at one meet to move their HP ?
I agree with question about what about race with 80 entries? Will the field size be limited to 64? or less? to encourage running fast there too? Seems like it should be arranged to affect ALL meets not just Indy where enough cars attend for a full field.
How does it affect points meets with no 128 car entrants?
The Big Question is WHY? Class winners are important..
