IHRA tried for years and couldn't compete with NHRA. When it comes down to it the Stock and SS guys were the best excuse makers as to why they wouldn't run another sanctioned event. There were crate motors, too many 1/8 mile races, etc etc you name it but what it boiled down to was everyone just wants to race for the Wally. Prime example were the races Ken put on that struggled to get any traction with huge payouts and catered directly to us. This year was better turnout but it had to be put on the day before the division races.

EXACTLY! The majority of class racers don't care about the payout, maybe because most never get to the final.
