I thought the new rule from a couple years ago stated that in order to earn your GP you needed to at least break the beams in qualifying. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Why not enter the tow vehicle in super street at each division race, just like buying 4 grade point.
I would doubt that your tow vehicle has a diaper or oil retention device......

Or an SFI balancer, trans blanket or roll bar.

Geez, Tongue in Cheek,
but a rent-a-racer for grade points is an idea.

You would think manufacturing companies that truly depend on drag racing in general would want NHRA to up the car count. Maybe they could grow some backbone as well. We try to follow the rules with contingency needs. Buy, display their names proudly and usually tell others. Yet I see a lot of advertising above this thread alone that surely don't advertise a sportsnational or anything.
I gave up on myself ever attending a national events. I have family obligations that keeps me to maybe 4-5 divisional races. Makes a person like myself after 45 yrs of racing stock eliminator. Pretty much just fill for divisional count now. Then only some manufactures only pay at National events. Go figure!
