2016 Shoot Out Rules posted

Hard to understand the logic here. Too simple to have A/FX and B/FX and why have a run off anyway. The Shoot Out's have been horribly administered in the few years they have been here. We won the first NA in Indy, and NHRA had to order another Wally; there was none, but they did and promptly. The indexes were a mile off so the rest of the field was not happy. Two years ago Nick from American Racing Headers offered to sponsor a NA class for the year. He was turned down by NHRA because he did not want to do the blown cars also. I do not agree with Jessee and David that this in a good direction. Of course Jessee Kershaw is always more politically correct than me. Between Ford, Mopar, and Chevrolet there are about 800 of these new cars produced, but in my humble opinion this free multi-million gift to the racing community and mostly NHRA has been treated as unwanted children. And in my earlier post I thought Chevy had input on this. I have been told that this is not true. I apologize. It does not make sense to rule out cars you produced, and Brian Massengill who sponsored the series is written out. Now who in the world would write out the Sponsor? With this post, I am seeking help in Indy to tear down the five cars I am bringing. Jessee can be the Social Director (Beer Boy) of the group, and David Barton and Mike Keener and the rest of the NA guys will be teardownologist.
