You all know arguing over this is a fools errand. Weather you agree or not,show up or don't, win and take the money and move on. Simple as that. The racer that takes the money wont be bitching. Clint Eastwood said more in three words than most said in a hundred.

NHRA missed and opportunity to pick up several hundred more cars.
That is a lot of business.

I think NHRA will add Crate Motors!
It is a natural fit for the existing program.
Plus attract more attention from aftermarket industry.
Which may provide more Contingincy money.

NHRA is allowing new Build Blocks, Heads and Manifolds.
I think the class should be call Modified Stock!

NHRA should create a new Stock Eliminator Class and keep it Stock
Designed to allow new production cars to compete against each other.
Some new Production cars are running mid 9 sec out of the factory.
Even the L4s and V6s are quicker then most Muscle Cars.
Get back to classic Bolt On Mods.
Which would attract more aftermarket products!

All about the business of earning money and having fun..

Dan, how did NHRA miss on getting hundreds of new racers? I thought
they developed an 1/8 miles series just for the disenfranchised crate
motor cars. 92.4 % are in Division 2. Your logic escapes me.

Mini tubed cars are not stock , 10.5 tire cars are not stock and crate motor cars are not stock. The first two can fit super stock and crate motors can go play in the brackets.
