Stock by class

I know someone will always be able to find fault if thats their goal. Unfortunately it can be and IS expensive to race NHRA class and Drag Racing in general. It is not really a place for everyone to run and many should not try whose budget should include food, clothing and shelter first. It adds a goal us to work harder, advance and earn enough to be competitive and someday a winner.
Week end bracket racing is a good starting place and many try that first as motor and chassis rules are non existant except safety. Many prefer this level.
IF someone desires to step up and can afford what it requires to compete they CAN join NHRA Points meets , Opens and Nationals. When the cost is too much then they can always return to Bracket racing week ends but their desire to race and their budget to race at NHRA events cannot be used as a reason to limit the racing in the organization.
Lower class racers which think they want more Heads up racing can always ASK for it .
AH was developed by racers in the class then supported by MOPAR. TOP/SS and TOP/STK were started by racers in these classes.
With input, others can be represented also. Jr/STK is coming next if requested.
