Explain the glitch? It has been a common mistake for a person running two cars to get points for one eliminator.

I just checked NHRA.com. Looks like the "mess" got straightened out today. Coincidence or....?

A mess is right! Somehow the guy I beat for class has more points than me! We have both only run class once this year. Must be the "Enhanced" points structure.

It's not straightened out. I won class at Houston and my name still isn't listed with any points. Not that it matters that much, not like I'm going anywhere to chase those points. Besides, if they don't give you the points that you earn, how are you going to be able to chase them. LOL

Can't you guys find anything better to talking about/beat down. It's a new system give it time. The problems WILL work there way out. Heck I was the furthest under stick car in Topeka (STK) and I did not even get a class win. At least Charlie Nealson at NHRA who is charge of this whole thing will talk with racers about way to make this class deal better and fair. Charlie knows there are problems with the system in its currently state and is looking for ways to improve it. But like all things it's just going to take time.

Before you implement a new system, you should try to have all of the bugs worked out before using it! I'm sure if these racers weren't policing it and pointing out they are not receiving the correct points, they wouldn't get them!

I speak from experience! Last season, I was not credited with the correct amount of points! I happened to notice this and called the Division office to make them aware of it! There response was "thanks for pointing this out, we will get it fixed." I asked what would have happened had I not called in, and guess what they said??? You got it.........NOTHING!

We are talking keeping track of points here! This is not rocket science! If they can't even do that right, what else are they screwing up??? It's a shame that we, the customer, have to continually make the corrections!

In the time Rosie was DD of D2 the points were ALWAYS screwed up! I bet I called and emailed the Division a hundred times trying to get them straightened out! Since Ritch has been the new DD I must say the points seem to be correct and the revisions are up right after the race is over. Refreshing! Jim

Apparently you left Topeka before they gave you your Wally. You`re listed as the "Stick Class" winner. It`s listed on DRC.
