For the racers that can afford to travel the country and wait for a race to break out, you don't have a dog in this fight with NHRA on this subject. For the racers that have limited time and finances to sport a Stock Eliminator car, NHRA's policy on grade points is totally stupid. I could understand if the field was full with grade 2 racers and there aren't any open spots, that's the policy that I would understand. There are now 6 spots open for the Gator Nats in Stock, what is NHRA thinking not to let grade 1 racers to enter.
The people who run our sport in the offices of NHRA are not racers for sure. They are just pencil pushers with no common sence and just repeat what they are told to say! Can't think out of the box that makes business sence.
It's not the fault of the racer that NHRA can't keep tracks under their wing, it hurts the racer when a track changes associations because the issues that NHRA have with the tracks and doesn't care if they fix it. PBIR went IHRA because of the past D2 director, nobody stepped in from NHRA to see if they could fix the issues, instead the track was sent adrift. There are 5 tracks with in 100 miles from me, none are NHRA, closest is Orlando, 200 miles away. There are also no National opens anywhere in the D2 area, the one that I used to be able to go to was the old Moroso, now PBIR's Citrius Nats.
