Well, its been that way every year since.
It used to be so nice to be able to take in all of the Stock class action, and have a few beers in the stands while doing so for the whole day, say if you were an SS racer, and then vice versa the following day for a stocker racer etc.

For crying out loud it's the biggest drag race of the year, it starts on a Wednesday ( and you need to get there prior to 18:00 on Tuesday, see prior rant...) and ends on a Monday, and it's now the only National Event where class is contested (other than Jegs sportsnats) and you can't friggin carve out 2 days for class racing?

Again, like I said in my earlier post, I almost always stick up for NRA, but these few things here are really hard to swallow.
