We're not talking IHRA here. If the NHRA eliminates grade points and no way of policing entrys, then you'll have people sitting at the computer waiting to register at the second the event opens up for entrys. Then it ends up being first come first come for entry to national events. While we're at it, why not suggest NHRA eliminate pre-entry to national events. That's a good way to overcrowd the pits and classes! Someone who is a "name" sports person and has received their license, etc. should be allowed entry to an event now and then. If they decided to race on a more regular schedule, then they should be required to obtain some grade points. Can't see this as a bad thing.

Who wouldn't want race Kurt Busch or some other big name sports person.
