I can't imagine someone with a -50 or -60 car even entering. Lots of money to get your feelings hurt.

You may be right Ed, I should probably go ahead and withdraw.

So the great minds took out Class Winners........

Old Days = .60 under, win class, get Wally and race at the Big Go........

Today = Welcome to the Factory Stock Nationals.............

It just makes me shake my head...

Bob Mulry, when willl the awesome Firebird be unleashed? I'm thinking -.88 in Stock an -.8 in SS. Bob Michael.

I will go with Thomas. I don't think the new cars is what took out all class winners. Course I have been wrong once. It was 1958 I think. If you can afford the time to go and it doesn't bust the budget, there is only one Indy. Qualify or not; enter or not; only Indy.

Old Days = .75 under, LOSE class, no Wally and then watch some guy with a FWD car that flat-towed it to the track and can barely run the index take your spot because he got a single for the class win.

What's a better system? I suppose that is for each individual to decide. I'm sure some like it and some don't. Personally, I'm looking forward to the battles to see who the quickest 128 are.

I've also got great admiration for anyone who is going to Indy and knows they have very little chance of qualifying. THAT is why Indy still matters.

Kevin, It wouldn't be HIS spot, the way Indy was run for what, 55 years?
The FWD classes were created by NHRA too, you realize.
Flat towing not acceptable @ INDY?
I'm not likin' the tone here, buddy...
