Just an idea to combine classes.

Dick,

MOST racers could give less than a S**T if they get points for anything. In case you hadn't noticed, there aren't a whole lot of people contending for points Nationally or at the Division level. Billy posted a reasonable thought that may be a little off to some, but then you went ahead in your usual way and made a complete cluster out of it.

Let's not combine Sticks & Autos. There are lots of classes where because of low counts in the class, the STICK guys have never found it necessary to buy THE GOOD STUFF to go fast. If they do, you'll see the STICK advantage show up in many more classes. Remember, there are some high HP Stick cars now running radials, so there goes that perceived advantage for the autos.

It ain't broke folks. If you want to hurry the demise of Stock/SS to the point that only the elite can play, go ahead and combine a bunch of classes. When you reach the point where only a few feel it is worth it to play, you'll have completed the demise of the whole class system. NHRA will just say GOODBYE!
