[Another Friendly Racer]

Many stock/super stock racers never had to deal with the "new" cars outside of qualifying and don't have any outrage. However a large group did, particularly mid and upper classed stock elim guys. Some of these guys went out and bought the 100k race cars to deal with the problem. Other guys just kept plugging away hoping to avoid these cars in eliminations. Other guys switched classes or stopped racing. Maybe it was a necessary change to slowly get people to start dumping the old cars and racing new stuff. It's NHRA's game, not ours. If you don't like heads-up runs, teardowns, etc but want to keep running nationals, I'd venture that Super Street would make a nice class for you.
