They had one and killed it... FS/X

Yep. FS/X didn't stand a chance because of having to race a FS/XX car in the finals. Apples and oranges. No heads up. No contest.

Yeah I know, that's why I said their own series, NO racing a XX in the finals. It could work and be just as successful.

A non blown series could work very well and be just as popular. Just keep it out of Stock Eliminator, get the rules right. There was a sponsor for that series already in place and I'm sure he is still there.

We had one at the Dutch in 2016, after some people were asking for it. 2 people entered. Nobody else. The NA deal is dead. It’s all about the XX.

The NA combos were not as close in power as the blower combos are. David and Bo pretty much killed everyone.

Now I doubt very much that NHRA would even consider trying to find the time to run two different Factory Stock showdowns at a National Event but running F/X might be something to consider at a Divisional or a National Open. The track operators are always looking for ideas for a Saturday night show to put people in the stands. Maybe something to go with the Alcohol and T/S-T/D qualifying.
