Low Turn out for Indy?

I will give you my opinon on the low car count. Before you bash me I don't have a car so save the key board hero stuff for someone that may care. I have driven to indy from North Carolina several times just to watch class runs in stock and superstock and leave, never watching a pro car make a pass. As a matter of fact I spent 5 days at Indy last year with my brother who has a SS/GT car and never watched a nitro pass. The new qualifying to get in on monday and class win means nothing has hurt the car count for Indy in my opinion. Any idiot knows a Gremlin, a 265 chevy, or a pinto wagon will have a hard time racing on monday. The line up for superstock and stock will be GT cars and new sheet metal. My brother has ran SS/GT for years but my heart is in traditional stockers and superstockers. I wish NHRA would wake up, there are still a few of us that enjoyed going to Indy to see each class with cars in it. Don Jackson
