NHRA/NMCA heads up vs bracket

No Jim it wasnt them. It was the Pontiac race in Norwalk. I thought heads up racing against other Pontiacs with small blocks, big blocks would be eye opening for Pontiac guys at the level of performance. Besides I also thought it would be something to attract some fast cars and not the usual boring 3 days of practice. They have one weight per cubic inch deal and it is the most popular.

You want to make points races popular, then some testosterone supplement is needed. Bracket Racing at the end is OK, but what is wrong with really adding to the over all enhancement of our racing experience? It wouldnt be that hard.

Thanks for the heads up (ha) Jim, I will call them. If the Pontiac guys dont want to do it maybe we can get something else going. It makes zero sense to me why NHRA doesnt do it, or we dont do it ourselves. Alex's race in 2001 we all ran heads up against the index, it was so cool, then we could bracket race on Sunday as usual. It is so simple, I guess it makes too much sense.
