The bold text is exactly the problem. It changes the basic principle of Stock Eliminator that goes back decades. It creates a loophole you can drive Mike Edwards' Pro Stock car through. The "new" rule about what is/can be "accepted" in Stock is written in B.S. "legalese" so that NHRA can come in and run over every current participant any time they want (read: any time they can get paid off to do it).

And it has everything to do with "racing". Considering it allows NHRA to decide who has paid them (NHRA) enough money to secure an insurmountable advantage over their competition. Basically what they've created is an extortion racket. They can say to any OEM "if you want to get a killer ringer approved for Stock, pay up."
