Paul-

The fast guys know how to slow their cars down before the 1/8th mile marker, as well as the 1/4.

You may be right, but I'm sure there will be some people who will have problems running under the new indexes. Especially at certain tracks like Bristol, but let's not get into that right now. Let's just assume that everybody can run under the new indexes without any problems.

How will lowering the indexes help you win more rounds in eliminations?
How will lowering the indexes help you win more races?
How will lowering the indexes help you win more heads-up races?
How will lowering the indexes help you win more class eliminations?
How will lowering the indexes help you be number one qualifier more often (if that's your gig.)?

It's not about any of your concerns. It's about you taking your stocker and running superstock. It's about the guys running at the bottom with "stock" parts now having to actually purchase performance parts from the dying contingency companies. C'mon Toby, it's not a conspiracy against the "brake pedal bandits," it's simply a business decision.

I have watched Steve Wann run Super Gas with his Super Stocker. None of the S/G guys cared. If they did not delete classes at nationals, that would not happen........

Well, it looks like it's about your concerns though. Why not just make a rule that says if you have entered a car in Stock this year you can't enter it in Super Stock later or something similar.

Aren't the guys at the bottom the ones you want to run heads-up? What's wrong with people running at the bottom with stock parts? How does it effect you?

Yes, sounds like a good business decision to drive customers away.
