My take on the Indy schedule

[SS/GSI]

The "OLD INDY" is definitely gone. Now with the Monday eliminations being cut out of the schedule moving forward. Having our own day/days(Thursday & Friday + Teardown days) for stk/ss class is over. The best case scenario is that the All-Stars gets put back to Chicago or another National Event venue next year and beyond, and we have Class Runoffs for STK & SS on Thursdays. I doubt NHRA would be willing to start us on Tuesday in order to maintain the schedule we have had for the past 65+ years, nor would they concede on working longer days and/or getting rid of exhibition classes to free up the schedule. Its all about the Benjamins now!

Please reach out to Josh Petterson and Ned Walliser at NHRA to voice your concerns/displeasure...all other NHRA personnel cannot be of any assistance on this matter.
