Wouldn’t an easier solution be to pay a bounty to the highest placing car you want to win? If you want to seclude a model or combo put the money towards the highest player without that combo. This would still promote A/S event without putting a burden on NHRA. I have no skin in the game but from the attendance of the big $$. Stock events. Not everyone cares about the $$. This idea of big $$ at the most prestigious event in the country is a win win for our sport. Thank you for what you are doing to generate excitement in what we do. Everyone has an opinion and likes to complain. It’s good to see someone put the time in energy into improving it.
I am no expert on Indy by any means but it appears getting power to the ground is usually the deciding factor. I feel the AA/S will definitely create an opportunity for others to qualify for the field that would otherwise not have the opportunity. So that’s a win for us slower cars I guess..

To all competitors, we are 6 weeks away from the shootout. I know that Indy filled up at 6 Grade points, but please keep an eye on the entry list to see if people drop out. We will also be asking NHRA to bump up the quota once it reaches zero grades if there are other classes with low entry numbers. Stay positive, we would like to get everyone who wants to participate to come. Tnx

Didn't one of the racers start a site to gamble on these type of races.
