Hmm thats the Dutch Classic, at the end of October.....could be epic......now if theres also contigency money on the line even better.

It is a touch sad though to take away the class eliminations from the fans that show up at the non-indy national events to watch, and listen to Alan and Brian describing the action, and also for the racers to not have the opportunity to get interviewed by Costello while they are icing down etc pulling out the tricks, and also do it on NHRA TV(thats a loss for the racer and TV viewer)

One of my fondest memories of class racing is at Charlotte 2011/2 when the Gaffneys having won super stock class towed out the morning of eliminations......they were beyond happy....And came to win class, thats it not run the eliminator....This part of the sport will be lost and thats sad.

Certainly makes one nostalgic for old days doesn't it!

so no more National Event Class except for Indy?
That is a travesty and to add insult the only class in D1 is an open?
To me this diminishes the value of the -1.00 under car., the $30,000 engine. What is the point? It's a bracket race all year basically if you are not factoring Indy into your schedule. SMH

This was posted by Steve Rhodes moments ago as everyone was talking what they thought this meant.

Ok, ok. Now let me give you ALL the correct and official information.

1. Class was removed from
National event to avoid the quota issue, this allows everyone to participate with no limitations.

2. Winners will receive a Wally, yes an NHRA Class Wally for their class win.

Any questions just reach out to us, this avoids all this incorrect information being spread around.

The Indy race is the ONLY national event that will hold class. So the Dutch will premier our stock/Super Stock classes.

I also asked if there would be contigency paid and he said Craig will be letting everyone know the details

I would like them to start class Sat am since we have all day to run on Friday, and a test and tune on Thursday. We have too many times where we get one round of class in and it all goes to S..t for one reason or another.
