I like the multi-class deal where three classes are combined into one for the purpose of Class eliminations. Of course some will think this is a terrible idea, but that's OK, everyone is entitled to an opinion. The bright side is that it would (for the most part) ensure that there are multiple cars running for Class (i.e., actual racing!).

I know, I KNOW, it's not your fault if no one shows up (I've singled for Class many times), but Herbie Null was right in that no sponsor wants to pay out for multiple single-Class wins. Plus, how can you stick your chest out and feel good about winning if you didn't beat anyone? It's not the fault of a single-Class car racer, but that doesn't mean a problem doesn't exist. I'd go as far as to try to combine stick and autos for Class runnoffs. It seemed that in Top Stock and Jr. Stock that if a combo was good that it didn't matter what transmission was in the car. The autos out 60-foot the sticks and the stick run better mph.

Every three classes could be combined, however, make it so if you don't want to move your car, you don't have to.
