Brian and Phil on the youtube broadcast without a doubt said there would be class racing at Indy. Phil stated that some would rather win class at Indy than win a national event.

Not saying either is wrong and I also did hear them say Class would be run at Indy on the video but, we all know Class at Indy is an all day event, usually one day for stock, one day for super stock giving each class a day off in between for tear downs. Indy has now been shortened by 2 days, chopping out Wednesday and Monday. You now have the Jegs All Stars added which sometimes takes most of Saturday up when it was in Chicago. I did hear a rumor that Super Street might be added to the list because 8 - 10.90 guys will already be there for the All-Stars and heard they might add a 40-50 car field (rumor) to run for a once in a lifetime “Indy Wally”. You also have TD & TS added last year in which we all know for us .90 races resulted in one of the normal time runs being yanked from us last year along with the parking disaster.

So what I think will happen is the top qualifier in each class will get a class trophy once qualifying is done. This way they can say they still had class at Indy and not ruin tradition of running class at the BIG GO. I’m sure they want to make it sound like they’re running Class because it will make that 160 car quota fill up fast. We’ve already heard on here that if class didn’t happen a lot of you were staying home, so you dangle the carrot and when you get there you find out it’s the fastest car per class. Just my 2 cents but, what do I know I’m just a .90 guy...lol

I'd like to see someone put on a race Labor Day weekend (Fri - Sun) for Stk & SS cars with class. I'm not going to Indy now but would go elsewhere if there was class.....and Hemi cars

Shows how out of touch NHRA & Burgess are thinking Fastest car in class is equivalent to racing and winning class at Indy!

They should at least pair them up by class for 2nd qualifier and give class win to fastest winning car.

NHRA has forgotten the part they struggle with the most at Indy.....Parking! Maybe the crew from Glendora will fly in and do it ? With the current schedule, they may have to cancel parking as well.

You know there is a model that works as an alternative to class at Indy. Just like the Baby Gators.

It would work. Pick a points meet to have the “Indy class runoff’s” They could even grant an AHFS hall pass. Then just get it done.
