Moe or anybody, I'm not a pro about how the NHRA run 4 Wide Events. So they don't use the 4 Wide for sportsman classes ?

Nope,just for the Pro's Nick.

Probably because the sportsman classes are not the "show".............plus most of the sportsman classes have to drive the stripe, that would be impossible running four wide.

Thanks for the info , I never watch the NHRA circus so I'm in the dark how they did this program....

Bender , I think if they used this in a bracket race no one would show up. But if they did you would see less driving the stripe and more hard dialing .
