But why did they have to create combos AND pull the money (aside from indy and Jegs nats)? Couldn't they do one or the other? Keep single runs and pull the money, or run the combos and pay the money?

Regardless, it would have been an admirable gesture by NHRA if they could have stepped up to the plate and started offering some money to class winners.

By definition it is not a class win when they combine classes and run them based off a class index?!? Some classes have been beaten up, some have not so it is total crap. IF you are going to combine classes (Auto and Stick) it should be a dial in race to make it fair for everyone ...
