Re: U.S. Nationals schedule
I have attended the Big Go as a spectator every even year since 1982 , always looked forward to going , even attended the COVID race last year was so dissappointed shortened 2 days , no class runoffs, which is why i attend for stk, s/s , ! We were assured by NHRA that the things we were used to would return for this year . guess not . May just attend DIV. RACES and opens from here on out . Nhra has lost sight of why true fans go !

Re: U.S. Nationals schedule
Just keep feeding the machine 150 stock and 150 superstock entries @$390 is $117,000 to NHRA just in entries. You pay all that coin just to get 1 time shot Wednesday before class and then called back for round 1 Thursday morning at 7:45am (or earlier like last year). But its what $2500 to win the race from NHRA.
But what do I know? Its about time we all pull our heads out of our a## and boycott this deal. But hay they gave us Monday parking back after it being a cluster fick 2 out of the last 3 years (no fault of the parking team they did a great job with the cards nhra gave them). I’m sorry but not running the last few rounds on Labor Day is just unamerican for the U.S. Nationals. I have not missed a U.S. National as a racer since 2004 when I started running it but there making it hard to continue.

Re: U.S. Nationals schedule
Unfortunately we don’t all have your good sense…(did I really just say that?)
