At first glance it does look like a race within a race. But the FS Class is not a stand alone event like most race within a race events because it still shares the same ladder with Stockers, without the same consequences.

Word is out that the new cars (2008 and up) will be in their own classes next year. It remains to be seen if nhra will do anything to correct the indexes or possibly put the FS cars in their own eliminator.
