Class Racing Farce

I mostly would have to agree. There are obviously some combos that are better or softer. I also realize that more research and planning prior to jumping into a car/combo could have us all driving cars that fit into those softer combos or classes. The individuality and disparity is what makes Stock so intriguing though.
That aside though, in all honesty NHRA probably does not need to suspend the AHFS for this race. It is the most prestigious race on the circuit for any class racer to win his class at so the fast cars would still let it all hang out most definitely, and the Factory cars that don't qualify for F/S/XX should then just not qualify just like the traditional Stockers that do not Qualify for the field must go home too. It would be more equitable for the classes overall and the AHFS would keep the playing field more even over the long haul.
Just my 2 cents
