Be interesting to know more about your family heritage.

Yet also have been around a good while and know this history.
In fact so old I Carbon Date my wife!!
Agree 100% about the post Bader IHRA was governed well.

There is a whole new world out here.
Investors of IHRA are about making more money for their investment.
Class Racing requires paying for a strong knowledge base.
Drag Racing is not a high profit business profile.
Run right will provide a steady stream and Bader was good at that.

Investor greed is also why NHRA Class Racing is on the chopping block!

Also agree there are too many classes.
Performance wise my F/PS car would fall in R or Q/SA.
CM and GT cars could fall in a bunch of higher classes.
All the fitments are already defined.
NHRA already has a separate FWD, Truck, FS classes.

Integrate all of them under the existing A-Z class structure.
Rule changes will require moving all under a tighter A-Z system.
Adopt the GT, PS, CM classes.
More cars competing means more voice more revenue.
Especially to the Tracks that are not as widely attended.

Would be happy put some skin in the game being a non-automotive contingency sponsor for Pure Stock with NHRA.

Someone else has to step up for CM and GT..!
