Setting records Nhra needs to step up

Great post Ed. You have some great ideas, and yes, if some racers can get together, and generate some sponsor participation, there is no reason NHRA shouldn't be able and willing to do it.

I still believe that the performance part of the class is very important, and it does not have to drive the cost through the roof. Performance can be emphasized and rewarded without making it prohibitively expensive. I do not think a mostly "bracket" format is the best thing for the health of the class. The "bracket" part of it has its place, but it should be co-existing with the performance side, and not the other way around.
