Eliminating the ahfs and leaving the FS/X cars in Stock at Indy will not help the vast majority of the cars that are trying to qualify. Move 50+ FS/X cars to their own category and then allow 180 cars to enter Stock. 180 cars would probably try to qualify if the FS/X cars are moved. nhra would pick up an additional $20,000.00 that they could then put up as prize money for the FS/X cars. I'm surprised the FS/X cars aren't asking for something like this. I know most of them are in pretty good shape financially but hey $10,000.00 to win is nothing to sneeze at.
