If memory serves me correct, isn't this what Billy Meyer did when he was president of IHRA?

"IHRA headquarters briefly moved to Waco, Texas in 1988 after it was purchased by Texan racer and track operator Billy Meyer who made many changes to the organization, some of which proved controversial amongst racers such as completely restructuring the sportsman classes overnight."

Similar. Actually, he used all index classes. But the timing wasn't right. He was ahead of his time on this. Can't keep an eliminator with a dozen cars running. Times have changed.

I'm not sure about that. I remember going to some events when Bill Bader had it and the places were out of control they had so many cars show up.
