Re: Hard Cards?
 

Good Luck with the track personnel recognizing and taking the card.
It took them several events to recognize the printed credentials when that was implemented or at least that was my experience.
Plus its cost of $100 in processing?
Oh yeah it is NHRA.

Rick, you beat me to it. I was just going to write something about this.

What is the point behind this exactly? Why do I want to pay $100 just to look cool because I have a hard card? Am I missing something? From the information I have seen, there would no reason for anyone to get one of these.

Anyone want to put money on how long before we're all required to have $100 hard cards?

Re: Hard Cards?
 

Jason, I would not take that bet.
My expectation would be to get the treatment/enhancement of our Competition License for with the same type of bar coding and have one card do it all for a enhanced price of the License.
One more way to take our $$$$$ by NHRA.
