Maybe we need some clarification of terms here.
If you have a heads up 13.0 class, then you could just run in it with an 11.0 car or a 9.90 car for that matter.
Or, is it zero breakout, even start , like the .90 classes?
If that's the case, what about throttle stops from the 60' to the 1000' trap, 565 R-M motors, trans brakes and so on , or is the winning mph limited, like it should be?
In that case, what are we saying here? The fans can understand breakouts, but not handicap head starts?

I don't suppose you can deep stage in the NHRA 13.0 class ? hahaha
