It's Time to combine

I think you are taking that joke to seriously. First of all, thank you for your service to our great country.
Second, nobody is trying to draw a parallel between real word danger and sacrifice, and driving a race car. Please don't take it anyway other than some harmless ribbing.

Combine the Sticks and auto with the current factored HP.
The automatic technology is so far advanced, plus having the performance advantage of radial drag slicks. Something that stick cars don't run.

I'm all for combining sticks and autos if we make it a level playing field with the same hp ratings for them both....is that what you want.
