Note that I favor the combinations that are based on the production castings. I think that you would agree that we run those cars pretty hard at times?
I will add that I was very involved in getting the 2015 Camaro into the guide. I caught massive crap for that one too!
In answer to your your questions, I hope that, somehow, the OEMs find a way to keep producing at least limited numbers of ICE cars geared towards performance. I would happily race natural Stockers.
I also hope that we will have a place to race long into the future.

As far as getting combos in the guide someone with some pull should have NHRA put more modern production models in the guide (i.e. Dodge Chargers, Chevy Caprice Police model, Chevy SS, Pontiac G8, all Mustang models both V8,V6. 4 cyl combos. We are racing stockers that are 40 - 65 years old. Do you see our eliminator lasting well into the future status quo. At present I think not.
