Are they sending e-mails out in batches? Haven't got one yet. I'm both S/C and S/G. Got all my points this year in S/G though.

I think if they want to change it (which I disagre in) because they havent changed anything since the begining then they should also make super stock and stock be a random pairing first round!!!

Agree completely. Easier for everyone to understand. Ever try to explain to someone that an 8.899 is a breakout, but an 8.989 is legal but slow? Make it 8.00, then anything with a 7.xx is an obvious breakout.

And the fact that you can run a door car in SC but can't run a dragster in SG is silly. Just put up times, choose your class, run what you brung. Heck add an 11.00 class if you need to. Call it Super Slow

My $0.02, worth what you paid for it...

Lance, I'll kill you! LOL jk.

This poll is completely ridiculous. I for one am opposed. Fortunately, I am a person who only has about 20-25 grand in my entire Super Comp operation. I was fortunate to who have won a dragster through a bracket race and have progressed up to the Super Comp category.

By changing the indexes, this becomes a rich man sport. To be able to run 8.0 or even 7.90, one would have to sink another 15-20 grand in another motor. In today's times, I would assume that this is not feasible for many people.

Take a look at national events, the super comp category was full the majority of the time. Why change something that works?

My motor will only run 8.20's or so, therefore I would not be able to make the index change. You don't have to run 175+ to be competitive these days.

By no way am I gloating or bragging on myself, but in the last three years, I have been able to be competitive in super comp going 158-59 mph. I made it to the Allstars this year, finish second in the division, and have even won a couple divisionals and made it to the final of a national.

The status quo has not changed so neither should the indexes. Like mama said, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it."

Austin,

"completely ridiculous" is a little harsh.....everybody has their opinion.....just put your vote in and lets see what the majority wants......it should be interesting.....

The results will be posted on one of the nhra sites when the poll ends.....I think on the 15th.....
