Joel has published a few changes for the 2017 season here: npwdrl.boards.net/thread/598/2017-race-season-classes-changes

He may post an official poll at some point, but I'm curious.

If the MOTM points race were limited to 5 classes, which 5 would you guys have included?

Joel will offer more, and I encourage you to race them all, but this is just to see which 5 classes you value most and would actually build for if the points race were limited to 5.

Mr. B Racing
See ya!

To succeed you will soon learn as I did the importance of a solid foundation in PWD basics.

Make sure you go up top and check off the 5 boxes for these so your opinion is tallied in the overall.

Surprised to see Box Stock getting some point love. I used my 5th vote for SR, but glad to see Box Stock in the running.

Very true. No way to do that through one of these polls. Admittedly unscientific, but still interesting.

With 7 votes in Box Stock there should be at least 12-15 cars a month in that class. Guess I need to build a box Stock to help car count in this class .. 😎😎🤘🏻

Although I will be participating in Box Stock (I'm not a pro, I'm just old), I don't think it should be part of the Pros' points totals.

I voted, though I really only care what classes keep running. Even with wildly optimistic expectations, I don't see myself having the time and the skills to build competitive cars in enough classes to pose any kind of challenge for MoM. I plan to keep running unlimited, eliminator, Street Pro and any flavor of Street Rod you care to offer. I would be real disappointed if any of those classes were ever kicked out, but really don't care which count for MoM, I am only doing this for the fun of building, testing and tuning with my buddies and seeing my cars race. It's all about FUN !

Doesn't look like we're getting any more votes, so shutting it down.

Was surprised to see the following:

Two times as many people want to keep SR as is (no bearings) as those who want a bearing option
Total SR votes 18, Eliminator 11
Box Stock got some love at 7 votes
