class win

[Dick Butler]

Whether you won class because of the NEW cars with underrated factors or overlooked low class turbo vans is the same thing. You are an artificial winner courtesy of NHRA and its factoring methods.
Find a class of all the same car and you deserve to be proud of "winning class" regardless if all of you are underfactored the same.
The mod SS classes could be better if the attraction of the New car factoring weren't available.

Once you didn't have to win class to get in the eliminator, the variety went away ,...along with the allure, for many.

Thanks Ernie, I didn't think it was that terribly long ago...which is the primary reason I won't travel 1400+ miles to go there unless/until I can make my car go .35 quicker than it's running now (average qualifying et is -0.39 under my 15.60 index, with a this year best of -0.580 under 15.02 in Pomona)!. I want to at least race in the first round of the main race, and the 135th qualifier (Kyle Ratcliff), was -0.869 under his index. I'm not sure how Indy's air compares with Pomona's, but I know I need to step it up a bit before I make such a trip!
