Guess my point is that if you're going to race S/C and knowing it's not cheap, how come there aren't more racers spending the extra dough to race T/D?

Heck, you turn the stop off that's on many S/C cars and most can probably qualify for T/D.

Having raced in super class, my guess is that some people just like the index style more. Most were bracket racers looking for something a little different in the first place. Another point, you are correct that alot of the super comp guys could qualify but they like running in super comp as the higher mph car so they stay.
