Will it fix the underlying issues with Pro Stock? Hard to say at this point but I think most would agree that doing nothing isn't an option.

Also, my personal opinion is that the sky is the limit for Factory Stock racing but I think it's important to manage the growth so it doesn't get completely out of hand. I think the current (2018) format shows a lot of promise with 7 events and stand alone eliminations.

My 2cents
I don't think factory stock will be quite as popular now that the slow cars can't jump back into the stock eliminator program. Time will tell on that as well. That's a big dollar class now.
