Rules for Class Championship on NHRA

[Marty Buth]

I give a lot of credit to Keith and David for winning the stock automatic championship. They ran fast and ran a lot of rounds to win. I think the tie breakers are reasonably fair. However, in my case, I won class at 3 events and had the max. points. In previous years, that would have been worth $1350 in contingency money for me. In this new system I received $0.00 and 3 wallys. I think there should be a little money distributed to all who max out the points, instead of a "winner take all" situation.
Just my $.02.

Agree that David and Keith did a great job. They towed thousands of miles and worked hard for the win all while doing a admirable job of representing their sponsors. As David outlined it I sure don't see any urgency to spend $ for a ProTrans and some other parts to contend for class. After a full year to develop a program that increases participation by racers and sponsors NHRA still has a ways to go to achieve that (forgive me for stating the obvious).
