NP..did not take it as that !!
Got a clear explaination about the Intent of the program.

This year was a big learning process been away from Class Racing for 25 years.
The Sportman Spectacular was suppose to be like a big National Race.
Behaved more like a larger Points Meet.

Wish they had advertised and organized it as a "National" Meet.
One day should have been heads up class eliminator racing, national records and bragging rights.
The next day run the races as normal.
Never hear the gossip about someone setting a record in IHRA.

Still wonder how NHRA can fill a 64 car Stocker Points Meet field and IHRA cannot.
One reason heard is the resistance to go 1/8th mile racing.

For all the rules and grief I am reading about NHRA.
IHRA seems more racer Friendly..
