Get rid of the TAD/TAFC . and you would have time to run those 10,11,12.classes

I would rather watch heads up door cars than that other crap. (I don't watch the crap cars run anyways)

Maybe if they get people running it they will replace Super Gas/Comp and the use of electronics. As usual all stock ss guys on here complain about something.

Re: D2 races to include 3 Unleashed classes
 
I ran Unleashed at Indy last year in the 10.0 class. The one thing that I didn't like was the 2 cars we watched in the 9.0 class using a throttle stop. The race director warned us all about using throttle stops and even said they would tear down any car they suspected of cheating. One of the throttle stop cars made it to the quarter finals, yet no one seemed to notice his car falling on it's face everytime it launched, running 9.01 or 9.02 every round. I like the heads up racing on a pro tree a lot, I just wish they would make everyone follow the rules.

Why would they replace a group that does not require the tech effort? There are more of those guys, and they are low maintenance. Why would the electronics bother them? Stock & SS are the expensive (due to the amount of tech officials required) and high maintenance group. That would be the most attractive to get rid of. Nobody watches any of them. TD & TS, and the Alky cars, I'm told, are "the show" at div races. If they are, something is wrong as nobody is watching them either.

It would sure stop the bitching about the DP's and Mustang's wouldn't it.................The manufacturers wouldn't like that though. No tech (other than safety stuff) and tear down's so NHRA could save on not having the experienced tech crew's. No record keeping of engine spec's, no more AHFS, no complainning about who is cheating and who is not.. No electronics, throttle stop's, timer's, 2-step's (maybe), air or elec. shifter's. No high dollar lifters, no cheated up heads, intakes. Cheaper engines etc. NHRA still can have the chassis certs, memberships and car numbers that is required now not to mention the pre entries for national event's and grading points to enter.
Whats not to like.......LOL. I think the next few years will be interesting.

Darren, if nobody shows up to watch the Alky cars, TD and TS cars, which are fast heads up cars, why would they pay to watch 10, 11 or 12 second cars?
