And like it or not, NHRA has to look at all parties interests before mandating new policy. I firmly believe NHRA is on our side.

Jeff,
I think you and Bruce are talking about the same problem from two separate angles with separate bits of information. It seems that you both agree with the core of problem, but it has gotten to the point of "eating our own."
I am not trying to cherry pick your post, but this part of your post is what is most troubling to me. This is not a shot at you, but a shot at the NHRA powers that be.
Why are the discussions heated at all? They know what they need to do to bring fairness back to the class with these cars (FX). It is logical, easy, has a lot of sizzle, and makes perfect sense. All those things being considered, the only reason as to why it would be "heated" is that someone has made some big time promises that the move to fairness would cause them to break those promises.
What exactly are those promises I wonder?
