Ray, just seperate import and domestics on 2 top dog lists. Because like you, I can drive my car to DD, or where ever, but 8 or so miles per gallon of 116 just isn't worth it. Thats is why I tow mine, not that its not street lagal, the NMRA class I run in is called True Street, and we must make a 30 mile road trip, so the LTD is D.O.T. legal for S.C.. I think I speak for alot of the domestics on the list, that have limited street driving on there vehicles for various reasons. I mean whats next, a point for being lighter then the vehicle you call out, or a point for getting better mileage then the vehicle you call out. All the different changes are doing is discouraging people from the list, and taking away from the real reason the top dog list was created, and that is to race. I mean you can make 2 lists, and at the end of the season the fastest import and the fastest domestic can split the money or put a dial in on their cars and run for the money, bracket style, or whatever. If an import feels they have what it takes and can except the domestic rules, they can cross over, and run in the import and domestic classes. I guess what I am saying is I look forward to racing you, or Superman Motorsports, or 1iron, or even harry when he gets his ready, win or loose. I just like the challenge of racing different and even faster vehicles, more then the small amount of money or even the title at the end. Just my 2 cents..

This was not some incentive to get imports to join the list/ give them any shot at winning (just ain't gonna happen in a straight line).

This was a purely bipartisan effort to offer up some small acknowledgment for the guy who drives his heap-pile to the track to race (and it wasn't going to affect the outcome of the list or change any rules..it was a stand alone award not based on any wins/losses).

This wasn't an attempt to undermine the domestic's stranglehold of this community. You can put your tin foil hats and bug spray away. It's gosh darn money..who the fuq hates that?
