AWESOME! That's where these cars belong and I'm sure EVERYONE of them will wish to compete in the program. Hopefully, your waiting to drop bomb #2 with media coverage announcement?
Some details on how you are going to "equalize" the N/A and super-charged vehicles!
Did you beat NHRA to the punch or were they just not interested?

I'm pretty sure Teuton was dropping hints in other threads lately, lol...anyway nice job guys!

The series concept, conceived by ADRL broadcast personality Bret Kepner, ADRL President Tim McAmis and drag racing veteran Jeff Teuton, was finalized in early January after months of exhaustive research.

Congratulations! The new cars have always been cool, having them in a class where they belong will make it a good thing for everyone, even if it is not in one of the two mainstream series. Too bad NHRA is too myopic to see it. The potential is huge. Maybe ADRL will pick up Stock and Super Stock, and let someone like Wesley Roberson run it.

It will be interesting to see the real details of how they will race. Brands alone, heads up against other brands with factors or... Factors?

This is great news for drag racing fans everywhere. To think, no break-out and the first to the finish line wins! This will take lots of money. Wait, we already have lots of money in our cars don't we. If my wife knew just how much money I have in my car she would have a fit. More money than when I bought my first house! WTF: Spending a lot more this month. That's another story.

That is quite an understatement!!! Just how many can really afford to play in this heads up game and for how long?

If you can afford to buy one, you can afford to play the heads up game.
Just wish I was in that group.

If you really can afford the new car, as much as they are "holding", you can afford it for quite a while.
