Hear here!
I have a short list too!
1) Allowing funny cars to narrow the bodies.
(So what if the Hawaiian flew?)
The narrowed charger was the start of the trend toward the current poopmobile shape....
2) Allowing tube frames in Pro-Stock
(So what if it was Bill Jenkin's Vega)
It made the class a techno wonder class with no 'stock' roots. Find me an OEM body panel worth a lick anywhere?
3) Allowing the first electronic delay box on the property at any drag strip anywhere on the planet.
4) Putting wheelbase limits, cid limits, ring gear limits, and anything in an unlimited class that has the word limit in it.
I want 'top' to be 'top' damnit!

Today I only have Pro Mod to be thankful for! At this point you can feel free to add any changes that made drag racing less exciting for you.
