Default Re: Part of what hurt drag racing

Personally, I think the wide variety of cars in Stock and S/S is a big part of the appeal. I think a single combination would kill the class. If everybody had to race a 350/255 69 Camaro, do you really think that everybody with a different combo will just sell, scrap, or park their " not the chosen one" combination, and build a Camaro? Even if the only class was SS/AH, with 50 cars, all heads up, the stands would be empty at a National Event. I have watched almost every so called "fan" leave the bleachers as soon as Top Fuel and Nitro Funny Car finish their session. If they couldn`t be bothered to watch Pro Stock or the Alcohol classes, what are the odds they will care about "slow" 8 second Super Stock Hemis? Let alone small block Camaros.
