Why Not Actually Having a Funny Car 64 Again?

I feel like for as much as we'd have King County be in no position to host the Western Swing this Year, I would feel like having to see after the US Nationals Next Season having a Funny Car 64 Again. I would start with Top 10 Mello Yello Points Standings, then go to Top 10 Lucas Oil Points Standings and then have the Top 10 as of the Prior Weekend the Funny Car Nostalgia Standings.

I would go down the board that having Top 10 in IHRA Funny Car Standings, Top 10 in Funny Car Chaos Standings, Top 10 in ANDRA Funny Car Standings and Top 10 in FIA Funny Car Standings. I don't know if reviving the Funny Car 64 would be fun, but, I would think more than likelier it would have to be the Top 10-20 in Each Series just to consider even making the trek across the World.

I feel like having to see a carrot Points Race where it would have to be 10 Points Per Qualifying Pass and I would go more up to 10 if it is a National Record or 20 Points in their Series Standings if it is a World Record.

Raceday, it would be 20 Points Per Round Win and None Per Round Loss and I would think that having the 64 in the Funny Car 64 would be a Multi-Day Affair like a National Event. I would think that anything, the points swing would go the other way if it was Demerits or Other Problems like Incomplete Runs or Oil Downs.

The decision to go back to 1320 Feet in Nitro will come sooner than later..

I feel as a Top Fuel and Funny Car Fan, the decision to go back to 1320 Feet in Top Fuel and Funny Car will come sooner rather than later. Other than having a called shot history, and expecting to be right within a day and a half, I would feel the push for 1320 Feet instead of 1000 Feet would be the fans and even their sponsors.

I'd feel like the issue at heart is having an imbalance in the Nitro/Air Quotient it is a Science Project and it is an imbalance. It gets harder just to blow through parts and nobody likes entry lists to suffer as an immediate result.

Just because you'd have more physical stock does not mean people are happy with the product that always is put out there. It is not fun to always be Off-Hours than On-Hours, but, it feels like the People that are Off Hours from On Hours are not doing their job right.

This would not all be in my hand, as a Fan, and we'd need more reason to have More Pro Stock Again, too. It hurts to find everyone who was 24 Races Entered and Started last year, which would make the NHRA Power Rankings moot and ineffective.

The downside with Drag Racing, you'd have to be effective and well adjusted to make a long run and not have to need anyone and everyone to make the series. It would be terrible publicity to have anyone have to be needed to race, and consolidating classes is a last resort.
