Marvin, I don't think anyone on this forum that races stock and SS are bickering with anyone that races brackets, the point they are trying to make is there is a place on this forum for stock & SS comments and there is a place on this forum for bracket racing comments. Making bracket racing comments in the stock & SS section makes no sense.

Just say no to eliminating heads up races in Stock and Super Stock. Take out the chance of getting a heads up race, and it's just another bracket race, only with more expensive cars, and a smaller purse. Exactly who is going to go to a bracket race that costs $305 to enter and only pays $1500? Especially with an expensive and difficult to maintain class car?

I had a conversation the other day with a guy who may be the very best class car chassis builder in the country. He said the only thing that got him to the track lately was the Hemi cars at the Hemi shootouts, because everything else had become diluted and convoluted.

I'd rather get beat heads up every so often, than have nothing but a pure dial in bracket race. If we get beat by a new car heads up, he's got nothing at all to brag about, and we've got nothing to hang our head about. I quit racing years ago after doing nothing but bracket racing and .90 super class racing for years. I was bored stiff, and sick of it. The ONLY reason I came back to the sport I love is the chance to work with class cars.

Make it all bracket racing, and I'm done. I have nothing against guys who bracket race, and .90 super race, some of my best friends do it, and more power to them. But I am done with that. If it comes to nothing but that, I'll spend my time hunting and fishing, and getting my pilot's license.
