What everyone else said is about right.

Keith, your not entry level haha but there are some 120 mph s/st cars.

Entry level, went out the window years ago.
I love S/ST HR, but there is no push over rookies in that class.
Other then possible me LOL.
Someday I hope to win one of them, been close a few times,
just didn't seal the deal.
There seems to be more and more S/G cars running S/St too.
As far as a National Championship goes, it take money.
IHRA has a National Champion. As for NHRA they need
a sponcor that is willing to put up with them to make it happen.

Just my 2 cents
Cal
S/ST HR 1177

The way entery level got take out is i lobbied nhra for 3 years many years ago. It's done no more entery level so can we stop calling it that. The ones that keep calling it entery level please learn how to read the rule book.

The argument that pit space is the problem went out the window with the approval of TS/TD national champions this year. This is a slap in the face to Superstreet category
still not having a national Champion but adding TWO new classes.

Just my opinion, NHRA doesn't what another throttle stop class to confuse the "crowd". I think the .90 classes could be sent to 'Divisional only status' in a couple years. Why have any .90 cars at Nationals, now that they got fast bracket cars. (TS/TD) It won't matter to me, Lets Race!!! E

I can understand the pit space limitations, so even if they'd just include SST in the normal rotation of classes at national events, I'd be happy. One thing I also wondered about are the entry fees. Why does SST pay the same entry fee as everyone else, yet the purse is 25% LESS than the other classes? Seems to me if they're going to pay less, then they should also charge us less; either that or up the purse! Otherwise, after 20 years of bracket racing and two seasons getting my feet wet in SST--I can certainly vouch for the fact SST is NOT an entry level class!

Your spot on Pony Pilot. Good luck getting anyone in Glendora to provide a answer to the entry / payout question too. Less we all tend to forget that it's a previlage to be able to race s/st at a national event. The sad part is I'm like a crack addict for the stuff.

I believe this is the plan. SC/SG are gonna be run the same as the S/St class soon and they will be called "entry class". TD and TS have such fast cars they have more "flash" to a person sitting in the stands who do not know SC/SG are some of the toughest classes to win in with some outstanding drivers.
