NHRA to reduce Pro Stock fields at some events

I agree the coverage on TV is a joke…………the problem arises from the TV production perspective. They are assuming the fans only have an interest in fuel cars.
This “ fan” has ZERO interest in fuel cars and I wish they’d go away , die. Hopefully sooner than later. In fact , Alcohol cars at least have the injected nitro vs blown cars ( dragsters) BUT they fail to include funny cars with the same combinations. I never did get that?

Pro Stock IS boring , all Camaro shows with DRIVERS who never turn a wrench or are clueless about the cars will never have the same appeal as the days of Glidden , Johnson , Iaconio , Reher Morrison Shepherd , Morgan , Rivera etc etc.
It's apparent the future is Pro Mod. And since the name Pro Stock implies a connection with OEM , fuel injection WAS the right thing to do.....if the class can't survive solely on that change alone it wasn't healthy to begin with.
