IMO, everything is fine now.
The FS cars have their own classes and the FS Showdown cars are totally separate from the other Stockers ( that are subject to AHFS) on the qualifying sheets. Took several years to get there, but it's finally done. Just my opinion...

Racing is Racing. Does it really matter who or what is in the other lane? Only if it's heads up.

I have now raced both type cars a 1985 mustang and now a 2010 cobra jet with a push rod engine .not all fs cars are blower cars if you look for a class in fs cars there are a lot of different combos to pick from just as there is in the old car combos .and if you buy a wreck or a flood car as I did it does not cost any more to build than an older combo it is the time we live in 2018 !!

There is always the possibility of that happening. They did create the new eliminator for the Showdown cars. If that class flounders in the next few years then they could move the factory race cars into that format and out of regular stock. The factory showdown class is very cool but I am not sure if it is sustainable. It might get like pro stock and the number of cars dwindle down because of the cost. Lets see how many cars show for the next race on the schedule

I'll have to AGREE with 6130 on this one. There is no way in h... that a traditional stocker (paper or not) can run with a Factory race car in A-Z Stock! Furthermore.... For you to direct discussion by implying when...... the quota is reduced to 32 somehow NHRA 's intent is to get rid of pre 80 cars is a joke! Before you ask; are you currently running in stock, when was the the last time you raced? I have been a member for MANY Many years and yes I am current in stock. I think the FS show is nice but not for me. I am not the only one that thinks the new ringer cars do not belong in traditional classes. I just can't let 6130 take a tongue lashing by himself. He has a valid point.
