Ya know, It seems to me that NHRA is trying to get the 1000 ft. gang to run it on out. If they really want to do this why not go back in time when ONLY class winners run in the eliminator. As it stands now what good is class eliminations. If I were to make two or three passes (at 1.0 + under) before class elim at Indy why even go to the staging lanes for class. Everyone knows that's when you get your pass to the barn. Just take the day and go play Golf. Let them look me up on the fairway.
Class used to be THE THING at Indy. These classes with small car count would change if you had to win class to run the eliminator. Guys would build cars for the class AGAIN.
