Default Re: New Grade Point System

A lot to think about with all of these ideas and proposals. I do not feel that the size of any class racer rig is the problem. You only have to look at the number of pit spaces the Pros buy. Those spaces push sportsmen racers out of the better pit area and out the gate.
I believe it's critical that all events be qualified and have enough entries to push people to open up their qualifying numbers and trim up the soft classes. I'm coming for comp background and playing with Top Dragster. I feel if I can't run comp Stock or SS is a step up from TD as it is truly a performance-based class.
Just tossing out a ideal if there were more entries but one fewer qualifying round and run the first round. If you a single-car group you move your rig to a parking area at end of pits. Giving room for the other classes. Alternate with stock and superstock. First day run 2 qualifying and first round. The other class is moved is and does the same. Sucks moving but it could double enterys.

Not all but a lot of good ideas in these pages. It's too bad their doesn't seem to be anyone in power that really cares about any of them. Just ask our SRAC. Stock was not long ago the fastest growing Sportsman category. Do they even have a Sportsman category that is growing. Loud noise, flames and fans. If you're not part of that show who needs you. If you haven't already stuck the needle in your arm as a new person why would you get involved in a Sportsman Categories. Give up your summers, spend a lot of money, have no ROI, and get pissed on with no representation. Hmmm sounds like something I'd want to get anyone else involved in.

I hope Bradenton is a Home Run. Think about the largest payouts ever for most categories. Not even close to what they race for now. Yet if they are successful, they should take most if not all the purse money in through the gate and live feed. Thats without all the sponsorship money involved. The Pros may be working themself into one of the largest purse raises in NHRA history. And well deserved. BP
