Wrong! There are a FEW fast lower class cars.
WAY out of proportion to the number of fast higher class cars.

Do you read Nitro Joe's Stats?

A quick scan of the 2021 Stock Eliminator data tells a different story. Statistically, the performance of the lower classes are very similar to those in the mid and upper classes. The upper classes are just WAY MORE populated.

There are a couple of exceptions in the front wheel drive classes. You know better than I wether that is because those cars are over factored, the indexes are wrong, or the cars are "Dime Rockets".

I think that you would know that I'm never very far from my Nitro Joe's.
You're making my point for me, statistically the classes may be similar IF you're only going by the fastest combos in each class BUT "the upper classes are just way more populated" and there are dis-proportionally more fast combos in the higher classes.

Just as a science experiment, pick a number. What's "fast"? 8 under? 9 under? I'll spend some time in Nitro Joe's and look into what percentage of combos are fast in what classes and I'm willing to wager that the higher classes are going to come out on top!
