I get where you and every other guy who is a fan of the heads up deal is coming from Jim. I would imagine that guys w pre 2008 cars don't take a week off of work and drive hundreds and sometimes thousands of miles to go to a national event just to win class and outrun somebody heads up. How many times have one of these new cars just been straight up outrun by an old car? If someone wants to say well heads ups are rare that's because guys w slow cars play the ladder game to avoid them. Why not have s/ss combo races w no hp factor? Run whatever you want. Call it the dick swinging nationals. There probably wouldn't be 10 old cars on the property. With nhra being the sinking ship that it is they ain't gonna do nothing to piss off the big 3 so them and their underrated cars ain't going nowhere. The 4th or 5th rd of a nat event that you took time off of work to go to and probably spent a couple grand to get to, is not the time you wanna see one of those guys come rolling by you at the 330 mark whopping all the way down the track. Now some of y'all look at that as a challenge but c'mon. Without horsepower being taken away the old cars can't compete, in a heads up anyway. Gene schmaltz jr. 4928
