I was entered last year so they had my money already so we went. Thankfully got in and out without getting stuck. I was out first rd , this was the first national event I was a participant and probably my only. Just too much expense and time commitment for me with the low purse. Don't get me wrong I would love to win one and have even more respect for those that have. I like the div1 races and the smaller races. Glad I don't have to worry about grade points anymore.

I get where you’re coming from Roy .. when I started class racing you could enter at will .. then a limit was put in play so I played the game of babysitting the Nhra website waiting for a spot or cutting a deal with someone pulling out of a National event … so now the car counts get lowered a few more times since then … and it gets even harder to get in … I’m a paying customer/member like you and when the company we are paying really good money too makes you feel like they really don’t care if you’re there or not ( filler for the pros) then I’ll spend my money somewhere else … it’s supposed to be convenient to the consumer when you spend your income on anything … NHRA makes it inconvenient
Ps … rain or no rain that place was always packed for a National event with class elims
