I just put a post on the Factory X thread regarding the cost to build a F/X program and the people who might do that.
Now, there are always all sorts of posts on this site about how the NHRA is "out of touch" and how they "don't care" about the "Sportsman Racers" (the backbone of the sport?) and the "Little Guys".
Well, right here I have a very graphic example of just that.
I was speaking to a well-known, long time Racer just the other day about the juggling of the FWD weight breaks in Stock and he wanted to let me know that he sent NHRA a letter requesting the addition of a Class (22lbs.) between DF/S (19lbs) and EF/S (25lbs). What we got is a change in the CF/S weight break (from 17.5lbs. to 19lbs.) and the DF/S weight break (from 19lbs. to 22lbs.) and an explanation that "NHRA didn't want to add any more classes".
NHRA can't add ONE class to Stock Eliminator to help out the "Little Guys" but they're willing to add an entire eliminator for the "Big $$$$ Guys" to play in!
Thanks a lot NHRA, we know where you're priorities are!
