Re: They say you can't go back....but...??
Mike I think it's an awesome idea. The few young people who still enjoy muscle cars and actively attend national events would get their chance to shine on a small budget if there was a pure stock class. I think it would bring in new blood. Jack and Vic, please post valid reasons why you don't agree other than the usual "no".
Other than that I do see the need for the additional tech as a problem because of NHRA's deep pockets and short arms. From an investment point of view, the playing field would be leveled out a bit thus getting more entry level racers but, also, think of all the bracket racers who don't give class racing a thought because of its high cost, they may want to join in now. This results in more entries(more revenue), more attendance with those racers(more revenue), more memberships(more revenue), more competition numbers(more revenue).
