class win

Several years ago Larry (prior to 200?), if you won class you'd get in, and the remaining spots would be filled with the quickest non-class winning entries. However, several racers (faster classed?), complained to NHRA about their running further under their index than many of the class winners, and NHRA gave into them. There was a thread about this sometime ago (last decade too?), and it may have shed more light on who benefited from that happening, and why it happened....
