OK, suppose that there was a Western Series and an Eastern Series. 10 races for each series. Would be set up so that if a Name team wanted to run all 20 races, they could do it. The idea behind this type of series is that a nitro team that was less funded could run, say, Western OR Eastern and have a chance at winning a series. OR a big name team could say, Joe Racer won both the Western & Eastern series. The idea is that it would be less costly to run 10 races, less travel expense, etc. Just the idea that it would cost less & gain exposure for lesser funded teams. Also, I've seen proposals for a different type of Pro event. Why not sportsmen run their own series, Divisionals, and not the Pro events. Add classes to Pro races, like AA/FA, nostalgia T/F and F/C, 5 second T/F Bikes, both alky classes, Pro Mod, whatever else you want to add. Drag Racing is entertainment and if people like the "fast" classes, give them what they want. That was what SoCalif racing was back in the Old Daze - entertainment. OCIR Sat night, T/F, F/C, Combo Elim and fast ET cars. Was like a mini national event, but most important, was great entertainment. That's why the fans came back. Didn't care about Low ET of the World, but did care about noise, excitment, flames and side by side nite racing. I wish drag racing was more like that today.
