Steve - It was at Vegas a few years ago and they dropped it. If you're serious about getting it back I would contact Brian at SAM as the class sponsor or some hitters at NHRA.
Pat Cvengros (NHRA tech) and I fought pretty hard to keep it but we were shot down by other players in those discussions. They felt there weren't enough cars out west.
To get car count up my thought was to make it a Vegas "Double Down" event. Run the season final on Saturday to crown a winner, and the next season qualifier or first elimination on Sunday. Or something along those lines to incentivize participation.
The other benefit of having these cars in Vegas is that manufacturers could use them in their SEMA booths and potentially the class sponsor could do an event there kind of like what Pro Mod does. A series finale in St. Louis just doesn't have the same cache.
