I received mine today and I agree; it is an impressive improvement.

I agree. The only thing that I didn't like was no classified section

Realistically, in recent years, there have been less and less cars and parts in the National Dragsters classified section. Between the cost, and waiting weeks for the ad to appear, Racing Junk, craigslist/Marketplace, not to mention all the racing specific forums and facebook groups have made printed for sale ads almost obsolete.

I got my ND yesterday and I liked it.

I think the change is appropriate.

I received my issue yesterday and I liked it. We will see if it continues with better sportsman coverage.

On another note, has anyone ever emailed Phil Burgess and asked him about posting the national records in ND? I looked for an email address with no luck. Maybe if its posted we can all send him one and see if it helps at all.

Maybe it would help them to post the Nat. records if they changed their format. Just list the current record holders incl. relative info and skip listing all the classes that are at minimums.
