2011 Stock/Super Stock Rule Changes

I realize that the NHRA may not do anything about it, but they have just shown that they will gleefully address issues that don't seem to the the top of current list of problems. I don't remember being at the track once in the last couple of years and heard a racer say "Gee, if they would just bring back the 55's....." Not that I don't like that they are because I feel they are neat cars, but I won't put anything past Glendora.

I still haven't seen one argument for keeping the redlight rule and inequality at the starting line that I can get behind. It is simply unfair to only recognize the first, not the worst.

That is the equivalent of saying the rule of the first breakout looses versus the worst breakout. If you feel the first redlight should only loose, then why wouldn't you support only the first breakout? Of course, that is another change and it would be stupid to do so. But it is no different that the current rule at the starting line as it stands.
