New class structures

I like the idea of one or two more divisions.You Div. 4 and 5 guys are really in a bind
having to do allthat traveling just to do divisionals.Maybe the board could take a slight pay cut to pay for the setting up and maintaining the new division operations.
Did I really say that?

You did! And it's about as likely to happen as a fair red light rule....

I think to help the fuel cars start by requiring the same block for the whole race maybe go to a smaller fuel pump and limit blower overdrive.
Pro Stock It may be time to go to fuel injection. Other than that I feel Pro Stock is fine.
Alcohol classes I have no idea what to do with them. Maybe they need to be included in the one block rule. When I started following drag racing the alcohol cars were not having to go thru engines every pass and you seen alot more cars showing up then. They need to real in the cost.

Take away the blowers all together in the alky classes or go back to the old 6-71's. . No nitro injected either. The class is called "Alcohol". The NHRA blower rule is causing all of the destruction and oil downs.
