What will NHRA's response be if the car count in TF (arguably the kings of the sport) continues to be low struggling to fill the 16 car field. Wasn't this a problem in the eighties and IHRA suspended TF for a time.

Jack, back in 2000-01 the counts in TF were low as well, Mike Dunn, Eddie Hill and a couple others lost sponsors so some of the fields for the first 8-10 races were as low as 15 cars. Scott Weis and a couple of other guys made the switch Funny cars to Dragster for that reason, I suspect you'll start seeing some independents show up knowing they'll have a pretty decent chance to qualify.
