The Fight To Preserve Class Racing

First and foremost we have no negotiating power with NHRA.Even $$$ isn't on our side.They can keep the super classes,add T/S T/D,Pro Mod and make up the cash flow.Would you want to be in charge of rules and enforcement of S/SS?We are the biggest pain in the *** for them,money and enforcement.
And we are NOT a car culture anymore like in the 50-70s.All these people want is to smell nitro fumes,see flames,cars blowing up and get Ashley's autograph.
And lastly,look at some of the mean spirited posts about class at this years race.We can't even get along among ourselves.
Drag racing is going along at the edge of a cliff,it won't take much to push it over the edge.
