Who is paying the contingency money? How much? And what is the criteria for payment? To me it seems like it depends on who wins. Then well let you know how much you get. A Great Enhancement. (this post was written by someone that ran a final round 3 times till they lost)

They wanted the W.R. Grace Cup to go to a funny car. But they were terrible at math. And that was when Wally and company ran the show.

It would have been nice if NHRA would have posted the EXACT amounts they are paying for the champions of the CLASS elims points chase.
For example.... MOPAR pays for 5 different products if you win class at sportsnationals... Does that mean they will pay $500 to the champs for each of those 5 products again? (or will they only pay once - $500 only). That's a $2000 swing that might have made a person think twice about going to Vegas! (believe me!)

Here is what it takes. We have to win A/SA with at least 4 rounds, we have to take out the other leader in A/SA, and we have to run 1.28 under the index, which we think we can do to win. What we win? Who knows. Jeff Teuton

I guess my main point was that this was to be a good thing for the sportsman class racer but was not highlighted enough by NHRA for us all to know exactly what was going on. I think Wes has the best shot at winning it.

The fact that you can go more rounds in the combo classes and get less points proves my statement. Earlier in the year I was told If I didn't like it I should move my car up or down to a more populated class. As it happens the guy that thought the whole thing up has never read a rule book (maybe another cost saving measure). I would like to have chased this thing. But if I ran 16 cars at every event I attended, and won. I still wouldn't even make the top five.

Forgive me for my ignorance, but What is a "combo" class?
