Why couldn’t the All Stars be held at the fall Charlotte or even fall Vegas race? They get tow money anyway and either would be a venue fitting such a prestigious event.

All these negative vibes with the Jeg's All Stars, I wouldn't be surprised if they just cut it out of the budget if they read this website.

Not only is the Jegs Allstars NOT just another bracket race it is THE RACE of the season. It's the hardest race to get into and the toughest R1 race you will ever have as you desperately try and turn on the lamp! You wanna win for you, your crew, and most important you wanna win for your team! Sportsman Racers who wish they were in it, line the fence to watch this race like no other and the Jegs folks treat you like you are the show.

Thank You JEGS for continuing to support the Premier Sportsman Event of the season. No matter where it is hosted, I'd love nothing more than to be in it once again someday!

Its just another shoot out bracket race. Now if there was no breakout like the the old days that would be cool! In fact instead when they're pairing cars in class that are singles, up in class they oughta run that race without a Breakout also! They've just taken all the excitement out of class racing! it's run you what you brung and hope you brung enough.! If you're slow yourA$$ goes home !!

A heads-up race for the final. Shaw has been to one final in this event. This is Speer's first Allstar final.
Speer gets a huge advantage off the line, Shaw starts reeling him in but quickly runs out of race track.

Yes yes it's cool when it happens but it's the exception not the rule we just need more of it to keep the tiddlywinks racers running one and two and three under honest. 1 lb weight brakesAnd fewer classes would have more heads up runs. Why do you think NMCA is so popular? Too much Bracket racing is going to kill the category just like they did Pro Stock with the belly button Shinola show LOL

Here is a link from their last event which was the SUPERBOWL.This is usually their biggest event.
Doesn't look that popular to me.The classes with the largest car counts are not heads up/no breakout.

Race here in Indy even during Covid was very cool! Cars everywhere. I was entered. Nice to see an all door slammer race with tons of cars and no belly button dragsters everywhere. Lol!

NMCA is popular cause the payout is good. The chances of a heads up there is even less tho when they mix in all the IHRA and NHRA classes. Even MORE of a bracket race......

CORRECT! They need more cars. If Current Sanctioning Body doesn't wiseup they'll get them! Love NHRA but S/SS isn't a tiddleywink race or a Super Bellybutton either! Its the STANDARD BADA$$ SHOWDOWN GRASSROOTS PRECIDENT CATAGORY! PERIOD! ASK MEYER!
