they're not which is why I stated

This is going to die, the only question that remains is when. My guess in 10-15 years you'll have less than half the class racers you do today. What little new blood interested in drag racing, are going bracket racing where at least they have a chance of winning money that will allow them to be more competitive. Further they don't have to deal with NHRA's rules nor take a week off of work to compete at a 3 day event where you spend most of that time doing no racing.

Gave this a ton of thought and spoke with some great racers.
If it “ Makes Racing Great Again” I’m all for it.

Asking NHRA staff to change the AHFS is a stretch being under staffed.

This topic is for people who actually race Stock/Superstock and are impacted by the proposed index changes. It is not intended for a small troll that has a .90 car that sits in the garage
