Hope I do not regret this post and I hope it is taken as just an honest question.

Probably so..but this time around there are no people in place trying to make it fair for the rest along the line .rather the opposite it seems(please dont talk about the system taking care of it..that joke is not fun anymore).....
Atleast i know that when the day comes that i get a headsup with a grossly under-rated car and the guy in the other lane have maybe a .3 to .4 reaction and waiving and smiling going by me well..that's the same day for the last round of NHRA-type stock eliminator for me...my idea of this wasn't spending $$$$$+ and 25 years to be out there making others shine!

Have fun with your beautiful car!

This all could be fixed in one year by the hras if they had the balls. Give big points for national records,big points for class wins, how about having like classed face each other in the eliminator in the first few rounds? The under factored cars no matter if their old or new have to be forced to put their foot in it or it will take as long as the Lt-1s and LS-1s to be factored correctly. I know people will still be able to play games in qualifying to avoid the heads up but it would be tougher. Also big points for #1 qualifier. Maybe keeping the cars in their original class to keep them from changeing class at every race with weight changes. I don't know but its just going to get worse with the new technology and chevy isn't involved yet. Wait until they come in at 250 horse or something goofy like that.

I like what Harry said......makes some good sense. Make it worthwhile for people to start running their car out the back door.....WJ

Jeff,you gave us a preview of the potential of your combo at Belle Rose.These new breed cars are showing a taste of what they're capable of.They will filter down from A and
AA down as their numbers grow.What will come to be when someone starts to run the Camaro combos?Everything from A to H will be dominated by them.
I can just see Dan,Peter and others showing up in P-Q-R-T-U-V to avoid the tsunami of
these under factored overpriced "stockers".
