Racing fairness versus Circus attendance

Danny,
What you are saying is IHRA racers that run off a .3 softer index need to run off that IHRA index instead of the NHRA index. Do you have any suggestions as to how to identify racers that should be allowed to run off the -.3 index? I don't remember the number, but if my memory hasn't failed, at the first USCN we had a very small number of IHRA cars that supported the race.
Just a thought: To make the car count even better and include more racers just run off the "old" NHRA index before the -.3. That would allow all the NHRA cars that could only run the old index or .3 under to get out of the garage and race, too.
Just my .02.. What do you think?
