I say it is about time, the class was dying. I think it was Warren Johnson who said quite a while ago: &quot;You can't even buy a weed eater with a carburetor any more.&quot; I think this brings the class back to what was originally conceived. Hope it get's more interest, I like the extended coverage and giving the fans better access in the pits.

About time they did this! Prostock is my favorite and in need of a major update. Maybe Warren &amp; Kurt Johnson can come

back to racing?? Who knows what this will save in the long run but has to be better for all.

Save as in bukoo dollars ????

Its out of hand right now..... where. 5 cars can win at anytime out of 16- 25 cars entered.

I'm hoping we see more brands....
How many Fords run Pro Stock Schedules other than locals at their home event converting their Top Sportsman in attempts to Qualify ?

Can you say......Cadillac Pro Stock Record Holder ?

Next they need to do something about the bodies of the Pro Stock cars. They barely resemble the car model they're supposed to be; get them closer to a factory body like in the '60's and '70's and they'll have something.

I agree....
NASCAR is slowly going back to that.....at the request of the manufacturers and fans.

Stock and Super Stock have come so far so fast that the aftermarket rules both classes ...

NHRA adapted factory cars now the factories have to adapt to NHRA......
THE Sanctioning bodies rule second to none.....

Re writing the rule book is way overdue.

But....we may never see it.....the aftermarket supports racing more than anything else..
