Ya never know.....Look at all of the NHRA stock and super stock guys/girls plus the .90 cars who enter for the "Grade Points" just so they can become enhanced at the NHRA national events. Its not always about the $$$$$ as the index guys will get run for a Div. Championship.

Looks to me like they have the Stock and Super Stock payouts screwed up. They have the winner getting $1000 and the runner-up $500. Then they have the 7th round loser getting $250. Well, the runner-up is the 7th round loser.

I wonder if they will let you double enter. My car (junk) can barely run the index, but I know that it can run 12.0, it might be the better choice.

248H Stock? Maybe be 12.0

I'm thinking that there will be about 50 stockers and about 20 12.0 cars, which is the better bet? If I can run the index, chances are I can, it would still be marginable with little room to use shoe polish. Four speed against a .5 pro tree, I like my chances.

248H Stock?

$160 entry --- 5th rd loser wins $150 I can't believe 50 stockers would do that, maybe 25 millionaires will oh and Ortiz will --- Kill em Ron!!!!

I will say as embarrassing as it is, NHRA did finally post the payout for the first time I can recall.
