Out of Curiosity, how does a nonprofit file for bankruptcy? Wouldn't they just close.

The only outstanding debts that I could think of would be the B.O.D.s salaries, property taxes and insurance. If the NHRA isn't racing then why hasn't the B.O.D. taken voluntary lay-offs along with pay reductions? |

Putting out a fuzzy statement can be a precursor of things to come. And NHRA was/is still interested in buying Maple Grove. Without a sanctioning body, Stock Eliminator has a new mystique when all the cars line up on a back road and race. Can a wheelstanding SE car still wheelie on a low/no prep crowned asphalt road? Will 2021 be the new 1950's-60's?

Excess funds would not go to members. Per by-laws and state law the funds would have to go to another tax-exempt organization. Bankruptcy isn’t always liquidation/closure. There are reorganizational bankruptcies, which allow an organization to restructure debt under bankruptcy protection. |

Re: NHRA roles for bankruptcy
Perhaps Julie can answer but the property they own in Pomona (i.e. Museum) would be more valuable than others such as Atlanta, Indy and Gainesville but who knows what their debt is. Possibly just all the equipment they own (or lease)? And don’t they still have revenue in the form of membership dues and sanctioning fees from all the tracks? Think their largest liabilities would be BOD salaries and buyouts. Don’t think they will declare Chapter 11 or any other kind of bankruptcy but if they did tracks could still gain sanction via IHRA or ??. If they did the greatest loss would be for all of their great employees. The associations would thrive unless their respective members acted contrary to the best interest of the group. There’s a whole lot of class (and comp) cars that are not going away anytime soon. COVID will not kill Drag Racing, we’re the only ones who can do that.
