Mike and Danny, it's too bad you feel that way. The Bowling Green combo series is run that way, and consistently draws 50 cars or more for a $50 entry fee and a guaranteed purse. They hold 5 or more races a year with excellent attendance.

Bowling Green does have scales and heads up racing. I'd say for the bigger money races we might even be able to get fuel checks and more exhaustive tech.

I myself am not anti IHRA, and I'm not terribly hung up on excluding IHRA classes. However, several regular attendees did complain that they felt some racers were using soft factors and soft indexes from IHRA to avoid possible heads up races and gain qualifying advantages. Given that Bowling Green is an NHRA track, the decision was made, with the support of the vast majority of racers, to run NHRA classes only. There had only been a couple of cars there that did not fit an NHRA class to begin with.
