Crate Motor Class

NHRA isn't "changing" anything!

1) The "Opens" in Div.2 didn't exist before.

2) Most if not all will be 1/8 mile, which many NHRA racers don't like anyway.

3) The series is SEPERATE from NHRA national and divisional points, so that won't affect any racers chasing those.

4) NHRA racers should be happy that they can get grade points there for national events.

5) Some people who are most vocal against the plan are outside of Division 2 anyway. What does it have to do with you? What purpose does the bashing serve besides stirring things up? Don't like it?...Don't go to them. The rest of NHRA hasn't been influenced by crate motors.

A side note - today's NHRA Stocker's are MUCH closer to Crate Motor cars than the class that they started as - Pure Stock!

Right now I have an IHRA Crate and a NHRA Stocker. I'll race both or whichever one I can do well with. I'm thankful for the option.
