Years ago, NHRA created the "Econo" classes for dragsters & funny cars. Idea was to take an old chassis and put a V-8 engine with one 4 barrel carb, Glide trans and go racing. I think 3-4 classes. Well that morphed into cars that went way past what the class was supposed to be. A/ED today can run 6.50's at 205 plus with what is basically a Pro Stock motor with a 4 barrel. Nothing "econo" about it. Not too many "econo" cars racing today cuz of cost. I can't think of a single class in Comp that wouldn't cost minimum of $100,000 to build. Would very much like to see a crate engine class and even a Junior Comp class in Comp. Motorcycle engined dragster would be cool for Comp. Have seen those run in the 9's. Cool to watch, high RPM and they shift it about 5 times during the run. I guess you'd have to wonder, if NHRA did include those classes in Comp, how long would it be before the costs would go to the moon, like everything else.
