New Grade Point System
I propose a new grade point system which I believe benefits racers and NHRA

Re: New Grade Point System
Racers being racers, you will see a lot of grade 9+ entries. The NHRA would have no way to plan for parking if they wait to enter.
One good change suggestion that someone brought up recently was to exclude the World Champions, etc. from the quota. |
Re: New Grade Point System
Bobby, as always, another idea with merit. My question would be if we
assume the current entrants at Gainesville have 9 or more grade points, that would be 35 entries. I believe that Gainesville would fill at least 50 entries besides 1/2 of the ones already entered. That would give us 85 entries for lows. I love it, but will NHRA? They then need parking for 4 classes x 15 extra entries, which there is room for in Gainesville, albeit on the round track (bring lots of fuel). If anything of your efforts get us 10, 15, or 20 more entries, we will have to promote you to running for Governor Of New Jersey. I was going suggest President Of The USA, but then I remembered that Ford thing, which I think automatically disqualifies a person from the Oval Office. J.R. |
Re: New Grade Point System
the NHRA ain't going to change a damn thing about sportsman racing, not the grading system, not the quotas, not the payouts but they will increase the entry fees.:D

It doesn’t hurt anything to try and ask nhra about any suggestions to better the sport as a whole. Bobby has some great ideas and maybe it might help if the negative comments are not posted on here. |
Re: New Grade Point System
I am right and Bobby as well anyone else can post their opinion here as I have as well they can suggest whatever they want the NHRA to change BUT history as shown NOTHING will change that benefits the racer...grade point system, entry quotas nor payouts.

Re: New Grade Point System
I like your ideas Bobby, but I think it would be hard to get NHRA to accept for the exact reasons Daren stated.
I think the proposal NHRA might accept would be open up entries a week earlier ( not 3 hrs. Lol) for grade 9. |
Re: New Grade Point System
I think that opening Grade 9s a week earlier than grade 8s has some merit. I want to thank Bobby for continually trying to promote our sport and coming up with ideas to improve it. Mike McMahan 2543 G/SA

Re: New Grade Point System
I have 11 grade points and couldn't get into the gator nats . All good ideas but change is needed at the top of the NHRA . Ed /660 chill out or switch to decaffeinated.
