Do TD and TS need to give up their delay boxes and nitrous timers for Indy, or are those OK?

You have to understand that Indy is all about go fast or go home for every class with the exception of the Super classes. They are the only all run class. The Top classs are big buck bracket cars. I don’t think any of these classes have the history behind them like the more traditional NHRA class cars have. By the way they are also the only classes that are allowed the electronic crutches. Everyone else leaves off of the bulb. I am not a fan of the delay box or throttle stop stuff. Just my opinion.

I love how everyone piles on the Super Classes for providing an 8-round race although not filling the quota, but not a word about Comp not filling the qualified field. All-run!

Indy is Indy, it may have different meanings to those in different classes but it's still the US Nationals and everyone should have the opportunity to race Indy. That being said, with the super classes not filling I wish they would've opened those spots up for the Stock/SS racers but otherwise no classes should be omitted from the US Nationals.

I didn't think so, so there is one class that is omitted from ever being there.

To be honest the pits are full. Not sure where they would put another rig. There are rigs parked in spots I have never seen rigs parked in at Indy before. I would expect further reductions in the sportsman car qoutas to gain space and ease parking.

Maybe SC and SG don't fill since they don't care for the schedule? I sure didn't when I had my dragster there once. They have 3 rounds of eliminations before R1 of stock is contested, so 87.5% of them are eliminated before the weekend! And 4 rounds completed before SS runs R1.
