Default Re: Pure Stock HP Adjustment

Dan I understand you're passionate about this, but looking at Nitrojoe's IHRA stats as of May 25, I'm just not seeing much demand for it.

1/8th mile
52 traditional stock
1 FWD
3 GT
37 CM
11 PS
21 EFI

1/4 mile
27 traditional stock
1 FWD
2 CM
1 PS
20 EFI


There are over 3 times as many crate motor cars and I'm not hearing anyone clamoring for them in NHRA. It's just too many classes. With all those PS, CM, EFI, and stock GT classes diluting the field when was the last time you had a heads up?

I'm oversimplifying as this doesn't apply to everyone of course, but IHRA stock just seems much more focused on bracket instead of heads up, 1/8th mile, and lower cost cars like PS and CM. Doesn't mean it is bad, just different. I think to ever make your case you'd need to have much more PS participation in IHRA than there is currently.
