Randy : I am going to have to disagree with your assessment of Racers and Spectators wanting to see Heads up racing . The reason long time ago the index system was done was to save racing for the racers as well as the spectators who like the thrill of the Chase. The Stock and Super Stock classes racing off the records was killing Stock and Super Stock as There was not a fair and balanced playing field for the less finance racers and as a result the racers with the most money always won (just like Pro Stock is Now and Pro Stock is in trouble and most likely will be changed in some form next year ) Stock and Super Stock racing in it present form is not broken it is working for the majority of the racers .

FYI There is Heads up racing now if two cars in the same class run each ,there is no break out works just fine
