I'm sure everyone else has noticed but it just hit me today that the pro mod quota for Gainesville is 50?

They would establish index classes. 8.90, 9.90, 10.90, 11.90, 12.90. Only policing for NHRA would be safety. That’s when I get out of it and rip the “stock needle” from my arm.

When Billy got IHRA and went to .90 classes that was it for me and IHRA.
Does that mean the pro mos will get the good parking spots on the grass at the gators?

Not just Gainesville - it's 50 at every race they run at. That must be why we needed to lower all of the Sportman quotas again.

I have been a spectator since I sold my S/G car and I ran S/ST before that. Watching those two classes and S/C is boring to say the least. The spectators just don't relate to the throttle stop coming on and off.
That's why I'm building a new stock eliminator car. Hopefully the spectators will prefer to watch my '67 Shelby GT500 race a '69 Camaro heads up in A or B than two cars that shut off and coast to half track and hopefully NHRA will notice also.
